[Intro]
C#  F#  2x


[Verse]
       C#                    F#
All my bags are packed, I’m ready to go
     C#                F#
I’m standing here, outside the door
C#                  F#              G#
I hate to wake you up and say goodbye
        C#                     F#
But the dawn is breaking, its early morn
    C#                    F#
The taxi’s waiting, it’s blowing its horn
C#              F#                G#
Already I’m so lonesome I could die


[Chorus]
  C#             F#
So kiss me and smile for me
C#                   F#
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
C#                F#            G#
Hold me like you never let me go
          C#       F#
Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane
C#               F#                   C#
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
   F#              G#
Oh babe I hate to go


[Verse]
      C#                  F#
There so many times I’ve let you down
C#                  F#
So many times I’ve played around
C#               F#                 G#
I tell you now, they don’t mean a thing.
      C#            F#
Every place I go I think of you
      C#             F#
Every song I sing I sing for you
     C#              F#                    G#
When I’ll come back I’ll buy you wedding ring


[Chorus]
   C#            F#
So kiss me and smile for me
C#                   F#
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
C#                F#            G#
Hold me like you never let me go
          C#       F#
Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane
C#               F#                   C#
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
   F#              G#  G#
Oh babe I hate to go


[Verse]
     C#                F#
Well now the time has come to leave you
C#                    F#
One more time please let me kiss you
C#                        F#             G#
Then close your eyes and I’ll be on my way.
C#               F#
Dream about the days to come
C#                    F#
When I won’t have to leave you alone
C#               F#               G#
About the times I won’t have to say


[Chorus]
C#            F#
Kiss me and smile for me
C#                   F#
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
C#                F#            G#
Hold me like you never let me go
          C#       F#
Cause I’m leaving on a jet plane
C#               F#                   C#
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
   F#              G#
Oh babe I hate to go
    C#       F#
I’m leaving on a jet plane
C#               F#                   C#
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
   F#              G#
Oh babe I hate to go
