Leaving on a Jetplane
John Denver / Peter, Paul & Mary
D7 | G | C | G | C | |
All my | bags are packed, I'm | ready to go, I'm | standing here out | side the door |
G | Em | D | D7 | |
I | hate to wake you | up to say good | bye. |
G | C | G | C | |
But the | dawn is breakin', it's | early morn', The | Taxi's waitin', he's | blowin' his horn. |
G | Em | D | D7 | |
Al | ready I'm so | lonesome I could | die. |
G | C | G | C | |
So | kiss me and | smile for me, | Tell me that you'll | wait for me, |
G | Em | D | D7 | |
Hold me like you | never let me | go. |
G | C | G | C | |
'Cause I'm | leaving | on a jet plane, | Don't know when | I'll be back again. |
G | Em | D | D7 | |||
Oh babe, | I hate to | go. |
There's 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. |
Ev'ry place I go I'll think of you, Ev'ry song I sing I sing for you. |
When I come back I'll bring your wedding ring. |
So kiss me ... |
Now the time has come to leave you, One more time let me kiss you, |
Then close your eyes, I'll be on my way. |
Dream about the days to come, When I won't have to leave alone, |
About the times I won't have to say. |
So kiss me ... |
