Leaving on a Jet Plane – John Denver

 

D                                          G

All my bags are packed I'm ready to go

      D                           G
I'm standing here outside your door

  D                           G                    A7                    A7
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye.

             D                               G
But the dawn is breaking it's early morn'

        D                           G
The taxi's waiting, he's blowin' his horn

       D               G                          A7                  A7
Already I'm so lonesome, I could cry

      D                   G
So kiss me and smile for me
 D                             G  

   Tell me that you'll wait for me

D                            G                   A7             A7
Hold me like you'll never let me go

        D         G
I'm leaving on a jet plane

D                         G                 D
Don't know when I'll be back again

      G    G                 A7
Oh babe I hate to go


There're so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I tell you now they don't mean a thing.
Every place I go I think of you
Every song I sing I sing for you.
When I come back I'll wear your wedding ring
So kiss me ……….


And now the time has come to leave you
One more time let me kiss you
Close your eyes, and I'll be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I wont have to leave alone
About the times when I wont have to say:
Kiss me …….
