G                            C           G
So, it's fare thee well, my darling true
                                          D
I'm leaving in the first hour of the morn
G                             C     G
I'm bound off for the bay of Mexico
              D               G*
Or maybe the coast of Californ

        D                  C        G
So it's fare thee well my own true love
                                    D
We'll meet another day, another time
             G*               C          G
It ain't the leaving, that's a-grieving me
                        D                   G*
But my true love who's bound to stay behind

G                                      C             G
Oh, the weather is against me and the wind blows hard
                                      D
And the rain she's a-turning into hail
           G                            C                 G
And I still might strike it lucky on a highway going west
                      D                 G*
But I'm traveling on a path beaten trail

        D                  C        G
So it's fare thee well my own true love
                                    D
We'll meet another day, another time
             G*               C          G
It ain't the leaving, that's a-grieving me
                        D                   G*
But my true love who's bound to stay behind

G                              C            G
I will write you a letter from time to time
                                         D
As I'm rambling you can travel with me too
       G                     C             G
With my head, my heart and my hands, my love
                    D                    G*
I will send what I learn back home to you

        D                  C        G
So it's fare thee well my own true love
                                    D
We'll meet another day, another time
             G*               C          G
It ain't the leaving, that's a-grieving me
                        D                   G*
But my true love who's bound to stay behind

G                                      C        G
I will tell you of the laughter and the troubles
                                 D
Be them somebody else's or my own
       G                           C               G
With my hands in my pockets and my coat collar high
                 D                    G*
I will travel or unnoticed and unknown

        D                  C        G
So it's fare thee well my own true love
                                    D
We'll meet another day, another time
             G*               C          G
It ain't the leaving, that's a-grieving me
                        D                   G*
But my true love who's bound to stay behind

             G*               C          G
It ain't the leaving, that's a-grieving me
                        D                   G*
But my true love who's bound to stay behind
