[Verse]
GAll my bags are packed, CI'm ready to go
GI'm standing here outCside your door

I hate to wake you up to say good-bye

GThe taxi's waiting, he's Cblowing his horn
G C D(Guitar)
Already I'm so lonesome I could die
[Chorus]
GSo kiss me and Csmile for me

Hold me like you'll never let me go
G'Cause I'm leaving Con a jet plane

Don't know when I'll be back again

Oh, babe, I hate to go
Riff 2
[Verse] (Upstrokes first half, pm second)
There's so many times I've let you down,
So many times I've fucked around,
I tell you now 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 bring your wedding ring.
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse]
Now the time has come to leave you,
One more time let me kiss you,
Then close your eyes I'll be on my way,
Dream about the days to come,
When I won't have to be alone,
About the times I won't have to say
[Repeat Chorus]
G many strums for the end.
