All my Gbags are packed

I'm Cready to go.

I'm Gstanding here

out-Cside your door.

I Ghate to wake you Amup

to say good-Dbye. D7

But the Gdawn is breakin'

it's Cearly morn.

The Gtaxi's waitin'

he's Cblowin' his horn.

Al-Gready I'm so Amlonesome

I could Dcry D7

 

So Gkiss me and Csmile for me

GTell me that you'll Cwait for me

GHold me like you'll Amnever let me Dgo D7

I'm Gleavin' Con a jet plane

GDon't know when CI'll be back again

GOh Ambabe I hate to Dgo D7

 

There's so Gmany times

I've Clet you down.

GSo many times

I've Cplayed around.

GI tell you now

Amthey don't mean a Dthing. D7

Ev'ry Gplace I go I'll Cthink of you.

Ev'ry Gsong I sing I'll Csing for you.

When GI come back

I'll Amwear your wedding Dring. D7

 

So Gkiss me and Csmile for me

GTell me that you'll Cwait for me

GHold me like you'll Amnever let me Dgo D7

I'm Gleavin' Con a jet plane

GDon't know when CI'll be back again

GOh Ambabe I hate to Dgo D7

 

Now the Gtime has come

for Cme to leave you.

GOne more time

Clet me kiss you,

Then Gclose your eyes,

AmI'll be on my Dway. D7

GDream about the Cdays to come,

When GI won't have to Cleave alone,

GAbout the times

AmI won't have to Dsay D7

 

So Gkiss me and Csmile for me.

GTell me that you'll Cwait for me,

GHold me like you'll Amnever let me Dgo. D7

I'm Gleavin' Con a jet plane.

GDon't know when CI'll be back again.

GOh Ambabe I hate to Dgo. D7

 

GOh Ambabe I hate to Dgo.
