Chords Leaving On a Jet Plane - John Denver Lyrics
[Intro]
D G D G
[Verse]
D G
all my bags are packed, I'm ready to go
D G
I'm standing here outside your door
D G A
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 D A
already I'm so lonesome I could die
[chorus]
D G
so kiss me and smile for me,
D G
tell me that you'll wait for me
D G A
hold me like you'll never let me go
D G
'cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
D G
don't know when I'll be back again
D G A
oh, babe, I hate to go
[Interlude]
D G D G
D G
there's so many times I've let you down
D G
so many times I've played around
D G A
I tell you now they don't mean a thing
D G
every place I go I'll think of you
D G
every song I sing I'll sing for you
D G A
when I come back, I'll bring your wedding ring
[chorus]
D G
so kiss me and smile for me,
D G
tell me that you'll wait for me
D G A
hold me like you'll never let me go
D G
'cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
D G
don't know when I'll be back again
D G A
oh, babe, I hate to go
[Interlude]
D G D G
D G D G
[Verse]
D G
now the time has come to leave you
D G
one more time let me kiss you
D G A
then close your eyes, I'll be on my way
D G
dream about the days to come
D G
when I won't have to leave alone
D G A
about the times I won't have to say
[chorus]
D G
kiss me and smile for me,
D G
tell me that you'll wait for me
D G A
hold me like you'll never let me go
D G
'cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
D G
don't know when I'll be back again
D G A
oh, babe, I hate to go
D G
but, I'm leaving on a jet plane
D G
don't know when I'll be back again
D G A
oh, babe, I hate to go
[Outro]
