  Don't know when I'll be back again  Oh, babe, I hate to go {last time only}



verse 2  
 There's so many times I've let you down, So many times I've played around,
 I tell you now, that they don't mean a thing.
 Ev'ry place I go I'll think of you, Ev'ry song I sing I'll sing for you.
 When I come back I'll bring your wedding ring.

Chorus

verse 3
 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 leave alone,
About the times I won't have to say:

Chorus with added Finale 

 G7     C                    F
All my bags are packed I'm ready to go

I'm standing here outside your door,
   C               Am             G    G7         
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye.
         C                     F
But the dawn is breaking it's early mor'n
    C                    F
The taxi waiting he is blowing his horn
   C            Am               G     G7 
Already i'm so lonesome I could cry.

Chorus:

    C            F
So kiss me and smile for me,
 C                   F

 C                     Dm             G7 
hold me like you will never let me go.
         C      F                  C
Cuz I'm leaving on a jetplane,

don't know when I'll be back again.
   Am                   G7
Oh babe I hate to go.

There's so many times I've let you down,
So many times I've played around.
I tell you now that they don't mean a thing.
Every  place I'll go I'll think of you.
Every song I'll sing, I'll sing for you.
When I come back I'll bring your weddingring.

Chorus:
So kiss me....

Now the time has come I'm leaving you.
Just one more time let me kiss you.
Then close your eyes and I'll be on my way.
You can dream about the days to come, 
when I won't have to leave alone,
about the times when I won't have to say.

Chorus: 
So kiss me....


We hope you will enjoy this song, it's a good one.

About the day, when I won't have to stay.
