[F#] [G]
[C] [G] [C]
[G] [C]
[G] Oh fare thee well [C] my [G] darling true I'm leaving the first hour [D] of the morn
[G] I'm bound all for the Bay [C] of [G] Mexico Or maybe [C] [D] the coast of [G] California
[D] And fare thee well [C] my old [G] true love We'll meet [Em] another day another [D] time
[C] It's not a [G] leaving [C] that's [G] grieving me But my true love who's bound to stay behind
I've heard of a city [C] where I might as well [G] be bound Down among the Mexican [D] plain
They [G]
say that the people [C] are all [G] friendly there All they'll ask of you is your name
[D] So fare thee well [C] my [G] old true love We'll meet [Em] another day another [D]
time
It's [C] not a [G]
leaving [C] that's [G] grieving me But my true love who's bound to stay behind
Oh the weather's against [C] me and the wind is blowing [G] hard And the rain is turning into [D] hail
[G] But I still might strike it lucky [C] on a highway [G] going west Though I'm traveling [D] along [G] lonesome trail
[D] And fare thee well [C] my old [G] true love We'll meet [Em] another day another [D] time
[C] It's not a [G] leaving [C] that's [G] grieving me But my true love who's bound to stay behind
[C] [G]
[C] [D] [G]
I'll write you of the laughter [C] and the [G] sorrow Be they somebody else's or [D] my own
[G] With my hands in my pockets [C] and my coat [G] collar high I'll travel unnoticed and alone
[D] And fare thee well [C] my [G] old true love We'll meet [Em] another day another [D]
time
[C] It's not a [G] leaving [C] that's grieving [G] me But my true love who's [D] bound to [G] stay behind
