  			All my D bags are packed, I\'m G ready to go 
I\'m D standing here out{G}side your door 
I D hate to wake you G up to say good{A}bye 
 
But the dawn is breaking, it\'s early morn\' 
the taxi \'s waiting, he\'s blowing his horn,  
Already I\'m so lonesome I could die 
 
ref.: 
So D kiss me and G smile for me 
{D}tell me that you\'ll G wait for me 
{D}hold me like you\'ll G never let me A go 
I\'m D leaving G on a jetplane, 
{D}don\'t know when G I\'ll be back again, 
{D}oh babe G I\'d hate to A go  
I\'d hate to D go... 
 
There \'re so many times I\'ve let you down 
so many times I\'ve played around 
but now you know that they don\'t mean a thing 
 
Every place I go, I\'ll think of you 
Every song I sing, I\'ll sing for you 
When I come back I\'ll wear your weddingring 
 
So kiss me and smile for me 
tell me that you\'ll wait for me 
hold me like you\'ll never let me go 
 
I\'m leaving on a jetplane 
don\'t know when I\'ll be back again 
Oh babe, I hate to go 
I hate to go... 
 
Now the time has come to leave you 
one more time, let me kiss you 
close your eyes and I\'ll be on my way 
 
Dream about the days to come 
when I won\'t have to leave alone, 
about the times when I don\'t have to say...:
