Farewell

	  		

Verse: 
G                            C           G 
So, it's fare thee well, my darling true 
                                          D   
I'm leaving in the first hour of the morn 
G                             C     G  
I'm bound off for the bay of Mexico 
              D               G*   
Or maybe the coast of Californ 


        D                  C        G       
So it's fare thee well my own true love 
                                    D  
We'll meet another day, another time 
             G*               C          G      
It ain't the leaving, that's a-grieving me 
                        D                   G*    
But my true love who's bound to stay behind 



Verse: 
G                                      C             G   
Oh, the weather is against me and the wind blows hard 
                                      D 
And the rain she's a-turning into hail 
           G                            C                 G 
And I still might strike it lucky on a highway going west 
                      D                 G*   
But I'm traveling on a path beaten trail 


        D                  C        G       
So it's fare thee well my own true love 
                                    D  
We'll meet another day, another time 
             G*               C          G      
It ain't the leaving, that's a-grieving me 
                        D                   G*    
But my true love who's bound to stay behind 


Verse: 
G                              C            G    
I will write you a letter from time to time 
                                         D       
As I'm rambling you can travel with me too 
       G                     C             G      
With my head, my heart and my hands, my love 
                    D                    G*   
I will send what I learn back home to you 


        D                  C        G       
So it's fare thee well my own true love 
                                    D  
We'll meet another day, another time 
             G*               C          G      
It ain't the leaving, that's a-grieving me 
                        D                   G*    
But my true love who's bound to stay behind 



Verse: 
G                                      C        G 
I will tell you of the laughter and the troubles 
                                 D 
Be them somebody else's or my own 
       G                           C               G   
With my hands in my pockets and my coat collar high 
                 D                    G* 
I will travel or unnoticed and unknown 



        D                  C        G       
So it's fare thee well my own true love 
                                    D  
We'll meet another day, another time 
             G*               C          G      
It ain't the leaving, that's a-grieving me 
                        D                   G*    
But my true love who's bound to stay behind 


             G*               C          G      
It ain't the leaving, that's a-grieving me 
                        D                   G*    
But my true love who's bound to stay behind
