John Denver
[Intro]
G    C    G    C    G    C    D7
//// //// //// //// //// //// //// ////  (2x)

[1.Verse]
       G                    C
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go,
    G                 C
I'm standing here outside your door
  G                C             D7
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye...
         G                      C
But the dawn is breaking, it's early morn
     G                   C
The taxi's waiting, he's blowin' his horn
   G            C               D7
Already I'm so lonesome I could die

[Chorus]
   G           C
So kiss me and smile for me
G                   C
Tell me that you'll wait for me
G                   C            D7
Hold me like you'll never let me go
           G       C
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
G               C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G  C               D7
Oh babe, I hate to go

[2.Verse]
           G            C
There's so many times I let you down
   G               C
So many times I've played around
    G                 C                 D7
But now you know that they don't mean a thing...
      G                C
Every place I go, I'll think of you
      G                 C
Every song I sing, I'll sing for you
       G               C                 D7
When I come back, I'll wear your wedding ring


[Chorus]
                                                     G           C
So kiss me and smile for me
G                   C
Tell me that you'll wait for me
G                   C            D7
Hold me like you'll never let me go
           G       C
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
G               C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G  C               D7
Oh babe, I hate to go

[3.Verse]
G                C
Now the time has come to leave you
G                 C
One more time, oh let me kiss you
G                C             D7
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

[Chorus]

    G           C
Oh, kiss me and smile for me
G                   C
Tell me that you'll wait for me
G                   C            D7
Hold me like you'll never let me go
           G       C
'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
G               C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G  C               D7
Oh babe, I hate to go

[Outro]
G                     C
Leaving on a jet plane,
G                     C
leaving on a jet plane,
G                     C
leaving on a jet plane,
D7
hate to go
