Fair Thee Well Cisco

      G                            
While walking through the railroad 
           C              G
yards on a cold and rainy night,
  C               G               
I saw a string of old boxcars as 
  A             D
it pulled out of sight.
  G                                
I heard the whistle blowing just as
 C         G
 sad as anything.
       C                G         
And it made me think of Cisco, and
     D                G
 the songs he used to sing.

(Chorus)
          C     G      D         
Fare thee well, Cisco, fare thee 
G
well.
G
Here for just a while, gone a many a
 mile.
          C     G      D         
Fare thee well, Cisco, fare thee 
G
well.

(Verse 2)
   G                               
He walked down every highway in 
  C                G
this great and mighty land.
   C                 G            
He sang the songs of what he saw, 
   A              D
he sang for every man.
   G                              
He had no truck with nonsense, he 
C                     G
sang 'em straight and plain.
   C                G              
He got his greatest music from the 
D            G
whistle of a train.

(Chorus)
          C     G      D         
Fare thee well, Cisco, fare thee 
G
well.
G
Here for just a while, gone a many a

          C     G      D         
Fare thee well, Cisco, fare thee 
G
well.

(Verse 3)
     G                             
Well I dreamed that me and Cisco, 
       C                G
we were standing in some town.
    C                  G          
The good clean air was in our 
          A                 D
lungs And the sun was a-shining 
down.
   G                           
He said, "This land has lots of 
          C                 G
room, It stretches far and wide.
        C                     G   
There's a lonesome freight at 
        D                   G
6:08, Let's grab that train and 
ride."

(Chorus)
          C     G      D         
Fare thee well, Cisco, fare thee 
G
well.
G
Here for just a while, gone a many a
 mile.
          C     G      D         
Fare thee well, Cisco, fare thee 
G
well.

(Verse 4)
      G                            
Well, he rambled 'round with Woody,
         C                 G
 just to see what he could see.
    C                G            
And when the Fascist tide was 
     A              D
high, he rambled out to sea.
    G                              
And every where he rambled, he made
 C               G
 friends of many men.
    C                   G         
And Cisco's friends can tell us we
           D        G
 won't see his kind again.

(Chorus)
          C     G      D         
Fare thee well, Cisco, fare thee 
G
well.
G
Here for just a while, gone a many a
 mile.
          C     G      D         
Fare thee well, Cisco, fare thee 
G
well.
          C     G      D         
Fare thee well, Cisco, fare thee 
G
well.
