[Bb] _ _ _ [G] _ [A] _ [Bb] _ _ _
[A] _ [Bb] There is a tavern in the town, in the town, and there my [F] true love sits him down, sits
him [Cm] down, [Bb] and drinks his wine [Eb] as merry as can [F] be, and never, [Gm] never thinks of [Eb] [Bb] me.
[F] Fare thee well, for I must leave thee.
Do [Bb] not let the parting grieve thee.
[F] All the time it's come for you [Bb] and I to say goodbye.
Adieu, adieu, kind friends, adieu.
Adieu, adieu, I can no longer [F] stay with you.
Stay with you, [Bb] for I'll hang my house [Cm] on a weeping willow tree.
[F] Fare thee well, fare thee well, [Bb] fare thee well.
[A]
[Gm] He [F] left me [Gm] for a damsel dark, damsel [Bb] dark.
Each Friday [Cm] night they [F] used to spark, used to spark.
And [Bb] now my love, [Eb] who once was true to me, [F] takes that dark damsel [Bb] on his knee.
