FARE THEE WELL


A

OH IT'S FARE THE WELL MY OWN TRUE LOVE
I'M LEAVING THE FIRST HOUR OF THE MORN
I'M BOUND OH FOR THE BAY OF MEXICO
OR MAY BE THE COAST OF CALIFORN

CH 
SO IT'S FARE THEE WELL MY OWN TRUE LOVE 
I'M LEAVING THE FIRST HOUR OF THE MORN
IT AIN'T THE LEAVING THAT'S GRIEVING ME 
BUT THE TRUE LOVE LEFT WAITING FAR BEHIND

OH THE WEATHER IS AGAINST ME AND THE RAIN SHE BLOWS HARD
THE RAIN IS TURNING INTO HAIL
I STILL MIGHT STRIKE IT LUCKY ON A HIGHWAY HEADED WEST
TRAVELING ON A PATH PEOPLE TREAD

CH 

I WILL TELL YOU OF THE TRIALS AND THE TROUBLES I HAVE KNOWN
BE IT SOMEBODY ELSE'S OR MY OWN
WITH MY HANDS IN MY POCKETS AND MY COAT COLLAR HIGH
I'LL TRAVEL UNOTICED AND UNKNOWN

CH

OH THEY TELL ME OF A TOWN AND IT MIGHT AS WELL BE FOUND 
IT'S DOWN AROUND THE MEXICO WAY
THEY SAY THAT THE PEOPLE ARE ALL FRIENDLY THERE
ALL THEY ASK OF YOU IS YOUR NAME

CH
