[Verse 1]
C
If you can't come along, love, then you must stay behind
G C
You're bound to say farewell to me
C F
I must bid you goodbye, though I hate to see you cry
G
But I'm bound for the mountains and the sea
C G C G C
Fare thee well, bound for the mountains and the sea
[Verse 2]
C
It's so hard to explain, why I'm leaving once again
G C
It ain't nothing that I haven't done before
C F
It ain't nothing much, I guess, but the thing I love the best
G
Is rambling this land from shore to shore
C G C G C
In this land, rambling this land from shore to shore
[Verse 3]
C
I have walked, I have thumbed, I've rode buses, I've rode trains
G C
I've ridden a time or two in a silver plane
C F
When I think of where I've been, I just have to go again
G C
Just to see if everything is still the same
G C G C
In this land, see if everything is still the same

C
So fare well, my dear, and I must be on my way

I'm a mighty restless man in a mighty restless land
G C
And I'm bound for the mountains and the sea
C G C G C G C
Fare thee well, bound for the mountains and the sea
