Farewell

D G D G D G D Oh, it's fare thee well my darlin' true G A I'm leavin' in the first hour of the morn D G D I'm bound off for the Bay of Mexico A D Or maybe the coast of Californ A G D So it's fare thee well my one true love G D A We'll meet another day, another time D It ain't the leavin' G D That's a-grievin' me A D But my true love who's bound to stay behind G D Oh, the weather is against me and the wind blows hard G A And the rain she's a-turnin' into hail D G D I still might strike it lucky on a highway goin' west A D Though I'm travelin' on a path beaten trail A G D So it's fare thee well my one true love G D A We'll meet another day, another time D It ain't the leavin' G D That's a-grievin' me A D But my true love who's bound to stay behind G D I will write you a letter from time to time G A As I'm ramblin' you can travel with me too D G D With my head, my heart and my hands, my love A D I will send what I learn back home to you A G D So it's fare thee well my one true love G D A We'll meet another day, another time D It ain't the leavin' G D That's a-grievin' me A D But my true love who's bound to stay behind G D I will tell you of the laughter and of troubles G A Be them somebody else's or my own D G D With my hands in my pockets and my coat collar high A D I will travel unnoticed and unknown A G D So it's fare thee well my one true love G D A We'll meet another day, another time D It ain't the leavin' G D That's a-grievin' me A D But my true love who's bound to stay behind G D I've heard tell of a town where I might as well be bound G A It's down around the old Mexican plains D G D They say that the people are all friendly there A D And all they ask of you is your name A G D So it's fare thee well my one true love G D A We'll meet another day, another time D It ain't the leavin' G D That's a-grievin' me A D But my true love who's bound to stay behind
