Capo on 3rd Fret

[Verse 1]
G C/G G
Oh it’s fare thee well my darlin’ true
G C D Csus D
I’m leavin’ 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

[Chorus]
D C G
So it’s fare thee well my own true love
D
We’ll meet another place, another time
G
It ain’t the leavin’
C/G
That’s a-grievin’ me
D G
But my true love who’s bound to stay behind

[Verse 2]
G C/G G
I will tell you of the laughter and the troubles I have seen
G D Csus D
Be it 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 unnoticed and unknown

[Chorus]
D C G
So it’s fare thee well my own true love
D
We’ll meet another place, another time
G
It ain’t the leavin’
C/G
That’s a-grievin’ me
D G
But my true love who’s bound to stay behind

[Verse 3]
G C/G G
Oh the weather is against me and the wind she blows hard
G C D Csus D
And the rain she’s a-turnin’ into hail
G C G
I still might strike it lucky on a highway goin’ west
D G
Or travelin’ on a path beaten trail

[Chorus]
D C G
So it’s fare thee well my own true love
D
We’ll meet another place, another time
G
It ain’t the leavin’
C/G
That’s a-grievin’ me
D G
But my true love who’s bound to stay behind

[Verse 4]
G C/G G
I’ve heard tales of a town that I might as well be bound
G D Csus D
It’s down around the Mexican plains
G C G
They say that the people are all friendly there
D G
And all they ask of you is your name

[Chorus]
D C G
So it’s fare thee well my own true love
D
We’ll meet another place, another time
G
It ain’t the leavin’
C/G
That’s a-grievin’ me
D G
But my true love who’s bound to stay behind
