Live Acoustic Fingerstyle Version {Leaving On A Jet Plane} [Intro] G C x2 [Verse 1]
       G                    C
All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go

    G                 C
I'm standing here outside your door

  G                C             D  Dsus4  D
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

        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
Already 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
