Leaving On A Jet Plane - John Denver | Guitar Chords

[Intro]
---------------------
B

[Verse 1]
---------------------
       E
All my bags are packed,
    A
I'm ready to go,
    E                A
I'm standing here outside your door
E                    A              B
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
        E
But the dawn is breaking,
     A               E
It's early morn, the taxi's waiting
     A
He's blowing his horn
E                  A               B
Already I'm so lonesome I could die

[Pre-Chorus (1)]
---------------------
  E            A
So kiss me and smile for me,
E                   A
Tell me that you'll wait for me
E                   A              B Bsus4
Hold me like you'll never let me go

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
B Bsus4           E       A              E
       'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,
                    A             E
Don't know when I'll be back again
         A          B Bsus4 B Bsus4 B7
Oh, babe, I hate to go

[Verse 2]
---------------------
          E
There's so many times
     A
I've let you down,
  E
So many times
     A
I've played around
E               A                 B
 I tell you now they don't mean a thing
      E               A
Every place I go I'll think of you,
      E                A
Every song I sing I'll sing for you
     E
When I come back,
     A                      B
I'll bring your wedding ring



[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
B Bsus4           E       A              E
       'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,
                    A             E
Don't know when I'll be back again
    A               B Bsus4 B Bsus4 B7
Oh, babe, I hate to go

[Verse 3]
---------------------
E                A                 E
Now the time has come to leave you,
             A
One more time let me kiss you
E
 Then close your eyes,
A             B
I'll be on my way
E               A
Dream about the days to come when
 E              A
I won't have to leave alone
 E
About the times
 A              B
I won't have to say

[Pre-Chorus (2)]
---------------------
E           A
Kiss me and smile for me,
E                   A
Tell me that you'll wait for me
E                   A              B Bsus4
Hold me like you'll never let me go

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
B Bsus4           E       A              E
       'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane,
                    A             E
Don't know when I'll be back again
    A               B Bsus4 B Bsus4
Oh, babe, I hate to go
    E       A              E
I'm leaving on a jet plane,
                    A             E
Don't know when I'll be back again
    A               B Bsus4 B Bsus4 B7
Oh, babe, I hate to go
