        C                 F       C 
Oh it's fare thee well my darlin' true, 
                                     G   G6  G7 
I'm leavin' in the first hour of the morn. 
 C                           F   C 
I'm bound off for the bay of Mexico 
   C         G            C 
Or maybe the coast of Californ. 
        C (or G?)         F {fill} C 
So it's fare thee well my own true love, 
                                G 
We'll meet another day, another time. 
             C 
It ain't the leavin' 
         F        C 
That's a-grievin' me 
       C               F               C 
But my true love who's bound to stay behind.
