Fare Thee Well

A A
A A7 D E 3x

[Verse 1]
A                 Bm7     E
Fare thee well my darlin' true
    A              D/F#         E7
I'm leavin' in the hours of the morn
    A                    Bm7  E
I'm bound for the bay of Mexico
   A         E7           A
Or maybe the coast of Californ'

[Chorus]
     E                 D        A
It's fare thee well my own true love
      A      A7    D      Bm7   E7
We'll meet another day, another time
             A                Bm7     E7
It's not the leavin' that's a-grievin' me
       A             E               A    A7 D E
But my darlin' who's bound to stay behind

A A7 D E 2x

[Verse 2]
     A                       Bm7     E
I'll write you a letter from time to time
        A              D/F#            E7
While I ramble you can travel with me, too
        A                     Bm7       E
With my head, my heart and my hands, my love
     A            E7                A
I'll write what I know back home to you

[Chorus]
        E                 D        A
So it's fare thee well my own true love
      A      A7    D      Bm7   E7
We'll meet another day, another time
             A                Bm7     E7
It's not the leavin' that's a-grievin' me
       A             E               A    A7 D E
But my darlin' who's bound to stay behind

A A7 D E 2x

[Verse 3]
     A                           Bm7    E
I'll write you of troubles and of laughter
        A        D/F#         E7
Be them somebody else's or my own
        A                          Bm7         E
With my hands in my pocket, and my coat collar high
       A         E7           A
I will travel unnoticed and unknown

[Chorus]
        E                 D        A
So it's fare thee well my own true love
      A      A7    D      Bm7   E7
We'll meet another day, another time
             A                Bm7     E7
It's not the leavin' that's a-grievin' me
       A             E               A    A7 D E
But my darlin' who's bound to stay behind

A A7 D E 2x
