Leaving On A Jet Plane Tab

by John Denver


Strum fast on all A's in Chorus
Key of D


       
All my bags are packed
   
Im ready to go
                                 
Im standin here outside your door
                           
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
        
But the dawn is breakin
    
Its early morn
    
The taxis waitin
    
Hes blowin his horn
             
Already Im so lonesome
        
I could die

Chorus:
              
So kiss me and smile for me
                  
Tell me that youll wait for me
                              
Hold me like youll never let me go
                   
cause Im leavin on a jet plane
              
Dont know when Ill be back again
                 
Oh babe, I hate to go

                        
Theres so many times Ive let you down
                 
So many times Ive played around
                               
I tell you now, they dont mean a thing
                    
Evry place I go, Ill think of you
                     
Evry song I sing, Ill sing for you
                                       
When I come back, Ill bring your wedding ring

Chorus:
So kiss me...

                        
Now the time has come to leave you

One more time
       
Let me kiss you
        
Then close your eyes

Ill be on my way
               
Dream about the days to come
                   
When I wont have to leave alone
                              
About the times, I wont have to say

Chorus:
Oh' kiss me...
