C 
D 
Oh,
G 
it's fairly well,
C 
G 
my darlin' true,
C 
Am 
D 
I'm leavin' in the first hour of  the morn.
G 
C 
I am bound off for the Bay of Mexico,
G 
C 
D 
Or maybe the coast of California.
G 
C 
G 
D 
So it's fare thee well,
C 
G 
my own true love,
C 
D 
We'll meet another day, another time.
G 
It ain't the leavin' that's
C 
a -grievin' me,
D 
But my true love who's
C 
D 
G 
bound to stay behind.
Oh, the weather is against me
C 
G 
and the wind blows hard,
C 
Am 
D 
And the rain she's a -turnin' into hail.
G 
I still might strike it lucky
C 
G 
on a highway going west,
Though I'm traveling on a
C 
D 
G 
C 
G 
well -beaten trail.
D 
So it's fare thee well,
C 
G 
my own true love,
C 
D 
We'll meet another day, another time.
G 
It ain't the leavin' that's
C 
a -grievin' me,
D 
C 
But my true love who's bound to
D 
G 
C 
G 
stay behind.
C 
D 
G 
I've heard tell of a town
C 
G 
where I might as well be bound
C 
It's down around the old
D 
Mexican plains
G 
They say that the people
C 
are all friendly there
G 
C 
D 
G 
And all they ask of you is just your name
D 
C 
G 
So it's fairly well, my own true love
C 
D 
We'll meet another day, another time
G 
C 
It ain't believin' that's a grievin' me
D 
But my true love,
C 
G 
C 
D 
G 
Eb 
G 
who's bound to stay behind
