Leaving on a Jet Plane (John Denver) Banjo Cover Lesson with Chords/Lyrics chords
Start Jamming...
My bag's a pet, I'm [C] ready to go
[G] I'm standing here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to [D] say goodbye
But the [G] dawn is breaking, it's early and warm
The taxi's waiting, he's blowing his horn
Already I'm so [D] lonesome I could die
[G] So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll [C] wait for me
[G]
Hold me like [C] you'll never let [G]
[D] me go
Cause [G] I'm leaving [C] on a jet plane
[G] Don't know [C] when I'll be back [G] again
Oh [C] babe, [G] I hate [D] to go
So
[G] many times I've [C] let you down
[G] So many times I've played around
I'll tell you now, [C] they don't [G] mean [D] a thing
[G] Every place I go, I [C] think of you
[G] Every song I sing, I sing for you
When I come back, [D] I'll wear your [G]
[D] wedding ring
[G] So kiss me and [C] smile for me
[G] Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like [C] you'll never [G] let [D] me go
Cause [G] I'm leaving [C] on a jet [G] plane
Don't know when [C] I'll be back [G] again
Oh babe, [C] I [G] hate to [D] go
Now [G] the time has come
[C] To leave you [G] one more time
[C] Oh let me kiss you, [G] close your eyes
[C] I'll be on my [D] way
Dream [G] about [C] the days to come
[G]
When I won't have to [C] leave alone
[G]
About the times [C] I won't [D] have to say
[G]
Kiss me and [C] smile for me
[G]
Tell me that you'll [C] wait for me
Hold me like [C] you'll never let me [D]
go
Cause [G] I'm leaving [C] on a jet [G] plane
Don't know when I'll [C] be back [G] again
Oh babe, [Em] I hate [Dm] to go
