Fare Thee Well

[INTRO:] G    C  G  C  G    C D G

[VERSE 1:]
                      C       G
Oh, fare thee well my darling true
I'm leaving the first hour of the 
D
morn'
    G                        C   G
I'm bound all for the Bay of Mexico
             C       D    G
Or maybe the coast of Californ'


[CHORUS:]
     D                 C        G
Then fare thee well my own true love
                   Em           D
We'll meet another day, another time
           C   G          C       
It's not a leaving that's grieving 
 G
me
                       C        D 
But my true love who's bound to 
     G
stay behind


[VERSE 2:]
                             C     
I've heard of a city where I might 
           G
as well be bound
                       D
Down among the Mexican plain
     G                          
They say that the people are all 
 C        G
friendly there

                C  D        G
All they ask of you is your name


[CHORUS:]
    D                 C        G
So, fare thee well my own true love
                   Em           D
We'll meet another day, another time
           C   G          C       
It's not a leaving that's grieving 
 G
me
                       C        D 
But my true love who's bound to 
     G
stay behind


[VERSE 3:]
Oh, the weather is against me and 
    C               G
the wind is blowing hard
                             D
And the rain is turning into hail
      G                            
But I still might strike it lucky 
    C             G
on a highway going west
                       C     
Though I'm travelling along a 
 D        G
lonesome trail


[CHORUS:]
     D                 C        G
Then fare thee well my own true love
                   Em           D
We'll meet another day, another time
           C   G          C       
It's not a leaving that's grieving 
 G
me
                       C        D 
But my true love who's bound to 
     G
stay behind

[VERSE 4:]
I write to you of the laughter and 
    C  G
the sorrow
                              D
Be they somebody else's or my own
        G                          
With my hands in my pockets and my 
C           G
coat collar high
              C      D     G
I'll travel unnoticed and alone


[CHORUS:]
     D                 C        G
Then fare thee well my own true love
                   Em           D
We'll meet another day, another time
           C   G          C       
It's not a leaving that's grieving 
 G
me
                       C        D 
But my true love who's bound to 
     G
stay behind
