Leaving on a jetplane – John Denver

D G
All my bags are packed, I’m ready to go
D G
I’m standing her outside your door
D G 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 blowing his
horn
D G 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
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
D G
I’m leaving on a jetplane
D G
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
D G A7
Oh babe, I hate to go

D G
There’s so many times, I’ve let you down
D G
So many times I’ve played around
D G
A7
I tell you now, that they don’t mean a
thing
D G
Ev’ry place I go, I’ll think of you
D G
Ev’ry song I’ll sing, I’ll sing for you
D G
A7
When I come back, I’ll bring your
wedding ring

D G
So kiss me and smile for me
D G
tell me that you’ll wait for me
D G A7
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
D G
I’m leaving on a jetplane
D G
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
D G A7
Oh babe, I hate to go

D G
Now the time has come, I’m leaving you
D G
Just one more time, let me kiss you
D G
A7
then close your eyes, and I’ll be on my
way
D G
You can dream about the days to come
D G
When I won’t have to leave alone
D G A7
About the time where I wont have to
say…

D G
So kiss me and smile for me
D G
tell me that you’ll wait for me
D G A7
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
D G
I’m leaving on a jetplane
D G
Don’t know when I’ll be back again
D G A7
Oh babe, I hate to go
