A D A
oh it’s fare thee well my darlin’ true ,
A D E
i’m leavin’ in the first hour of the morn .
A D A
i’m bound off for the bay of mexico
A E A
or maybe the coast of californ .
E D A
so it’s fare thee well my own true love ,
A D A E
we’ll meet another day , another time .
A
it ain’t the leavin’
D/A A
that’s A – grievin’ me
A E A
but my true love who’s bound to stay behind .

oh the weather is against me and the wind blows hard
and the rain she’s A – turnin’ into hail .
i still might strike it lucky on a highway goin’ west ,
though i’m travelin’ on a path beaten trail .
so it’s fare thee well my own true love ,
we’ll meet another day , another time .
it ain’t the leavin’
that’s A – grievin’ me
but my true love who’s bound to stay behind .

i will write you a letter from time to time ,
as i’m ramblin’ you can travel with me too .
with my head , my heart and my hands , my love ,
i will send what i learn back home to you .
so it’s fare thee well my own true love ,
we’ll meet another day , another time .
it ain’t the leavin’
that’s A – grievin’ me
but my true love who’s bound to stay behind .

i will tell you of the laughter and of troubles ,
be them somebody else’s or my own .
with my hands in my pockets and my coat collar high ,
i will travel unnoticed and unknown .
so it’s fare thee well my own true love ,
we’ll meet another day , another time .
it ain’t the leavin’
that’s A – grievin’ me
but my true love who’s bound to stay behind .

i’ve heard tell of a town where i might as well be bound ,
it’s down around the old mexican plains .
they say that the people are all friendly there
and all they ask of you is your name .
so it’s fare thee well my own true love ,
we’ll meet another day , another time .
it ain’t the leavin’
that’s A – grievin’ me
but my true love who’s bound to stay behind .

the difficult way!
