Sayounara (さようなら). The correct pronunciation is SAH-YO-NAH-RAH. "Sayounara," while being a literal goodbye, has an air of being very final.

If you are just leaving to run a few errands, or go out for a little bit, "Itte kimasu," is more appropriate. (Pronounced EET-tay KEE-mahss, it means "I'm leaving and returning.") or, if you are taking leave of a close friend you will see again soon, "ja mata nee" (Jah mah-tah nay, "later.") or "mata ashita" (mah-tah ah-sh-tah, "See you tomorrow.").

These last two are very informal and should not be used with parents, strangers, or superiors.
