Leaving On A Jetplane - John Denver

        G                   C
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door
   G                 C             D   Dsus4   D
I hate to wake you  up to say goodbye

          G                    C
But the dawn is breakin' it's early morn
The taxi's waitin' he's blowin' his horn
     G           C                   D   Dsus4   D
Already I'm so lone____some I could die 

[Chorus]

     G           C            G                  C
So kiss me and smile for me; tell me that you'll wait for me
 G                    C          D   Dsus4   D
Hold me like you'll never let me go
            G      C
'Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
   G             C               G
Don't know when I'll be back again
      C                  D   Dsus4   D      D   Dsus4   D
Oh, babe,      I hate to go...

G                          C
There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
G               C                 D   Dsus4   D
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing

G                      C
Every place I go, I'll think of you
Every song I sing, I'll sing for you
G                C                       D   Dsus4   D
When I come back I'll bring your wedding ring

[Chorus]

G            C
Now the time has come to leave you
One more time, let me kiss you
G                     C             D   Dsus4   D
Then close your eyes, I'll be on my way

Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
G                  C             D   Dsus4   D
About the times I won't have to say
