G C
Well my bags are packed, I'm ready to go,
G C
I'm standing here outside the door
G D7
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye.
G C
But the dawn is breakin', it's early morn',
G C
The Taxi's waitin', he's blowin' his horn.
G D7
Already I'm so lonesome I could die.
G C
So kiss me and smile for me,
G C
Tell me that you'll wait for me,
G Am D7
Hold me like you never let me go.
G C
Cause I'm leavin on a jet plane,
G D7
I don't know when I'll be back again.
G D7
Babe, I have to go.
G C
There's so many times I've let you down
G C
So many times I've played around
G D7
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing.
G C
Every place I go I'll think of you
G C
Every song I sing I sing for you
G D7
When I come back, I'll bring your weddin ring.
G C
So kiss me and smile for me,
G C
Tell me that you'll wait for me,
G Am D7
Hold me like you never let me go.
LEAVIN ON A JET PLANE
by New York Joe
G C
Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,
G C D7
Don't know when I'll be back again.
G C D7
Oh babe, I hate to go.
G C
Now the time has come to leave you
G C
One more time let me kiss you
G C D7
Then close your eyes, I'll be on my way.
G C
Dream about the days to come
G C
When I won't have to leave alone
G C D7
About the times I won't have to say.
G C
So kiss me and smile for me,
G C
Tell me that you'll wait for me,
G Am D7
Hold me like you never let me go.
G C
Cause Im leaving on a jet plane,
G C D7
Don't know when I'll be back again.
G C D7
Oh babe, I have to go.
