G C
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go.
G C
I'm standing here out-side your door
G C D Dsus4 D
I hate to wake you up to say good-bye.
G C
But the dawn is breaking, it's early morn,
G C
The taxi's waiting, he's blowing his horn
G C D Dsus4 D
Al-ready I'm so lonesome I could die.
[Chorus]
G C
So kiss me and smile for me
G C
Tell me that you'll wait for me
G C D Dsus4 D
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
G C
I'm leaving on a jet plane
G C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G C D Dsus4 D Dsus2
Oh babe I hate to go
[Verse 2]
G C
There's so many times I've let you down
G C
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
G C
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
So kiss me and smile for me
G C
Tell me that you'll wait for me
G C D Dsus4 D
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
G C
I'm leaving on a jet plane
G C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G C D Dsus4 D Dsus2
Oh babe I hate to go
[Verse 3]
G C
Now the time has come to leave you
G C
One more time let me kiss you
G C D Dsus4 D
Then close your eyes I'll be on my way
G C
Dream about the days to come
G C
When I won't have to leave alone
G C D Dsus4 D
About the times I won't have to say.
[Chorus]
G C
So kiss me and smile for me
G C
Tell me that you'll wait for me
G C D Dsus4 D
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
G C
I'm leaving on a jet plane
G C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G C D Dsus4 D
Oh babe I hate to go
[Outro]
G C
I'm leaving on a jet plane
G C
Don't know when I'll be back again
G C D
Oh babe I hate to go
D Dsus4 D Dsus2
{Goodbye Again}
[Verse 1]
G G/F# Em C G
It's five o'clock this morning, and the sun is on the rise
G G/F# Em C D7
There's frosting on the window pane, and sorrow in your eyes
G G/F# Em C G
The stars are fading quietly, the night is nearly gone
G G/F# Em C D7
And so you turn away from me, and tears begin to come
[Chorus]
Am D7 G G/F# Em
And it's goodbye again, I'm sorry to be leavin' you
Am D7 G G/F# Em
Goodbye again, as if you didn't know
Am D7 G G/F# Em
It's goodbye again, and I wish you could tell me
Am D7 D7sus4
Why do we always fight when I have to go
[Verse 2]
G G/F# Em C G
It seems a shame to leave you now, you lay so soft and warm
G G/F# Em C D7
I long to lay me down again, to hold you in my arms
G G/F# Em C G
I long to kiss the tears away, give you back your smile
G G/F# Em C D7
But other voices beckon me, and for a little while
[Chorus]
Am D7 G G/F# Em
It's goodbye again, I'm sorry to be leavin' you
Am D7 G G/F# Em
Goodbye again, as if you didn't know
Am D7 G G/F# Em
It's goodbye again, and I wish you could tell me
Am D7 D7sus4
Why do we always fight when I have to go
[Bridge]
Bm C G G/F# Em
I have to go and see some friends of mine, some that I don't know
Am D7 G
Some who aren't familiar with my name,
Bm C G G/F# Em
It's something that's inside of me not hard to understand
Am C D7 D7sus4
It’s anyone who listens to me sing
[Verse 3]
G G/F# Em C G
And if your hours are empty now, who am I to blame
G G/F# Em C D7
You think if I were always here, our love would be the same
G G/F# Em C G
As it is the time we have, is worth the time alone
G G/F# Em C D7
And lying by your side, the greatest peace I've ever known
[Chorus]
Am D7 G G/F# Em
Goodbye again, and I'm sorry to be leavin' you
Am D7 G G/F# Em
Goodbye again, as if you didn't know
Am D7 G G/F# Em
It's goodbye again, and I wish you could tell me
Am D7 D7sus4 D7
Why do we always fight when I have to go
