Intro: D      G

   A  G
Fare thee well

My own true love
  C             G
Farewell for a while

I'm going away
       C   G
But I'll be back
                                        C            G
Though I go 10,000 miles
G
10,000 miles

My own true love

10,000 miles or more

The rocks may melt
                                               Em
And the seas may burn
                              C                       G
If I should not return

Oh don't you see

That lonesome dove

Sitting on an ivy tree
                                            Em
She's weeping for
               G
Her own true love
                           Em
As I shall weep for mine

                                      C
Oh come ye back
 C     G                                    C          G
My own true love
                    Am             G                   C
And stay a while with me
                   G                 C
If I had a friend
G                                    C
All on this earth
                           G
You've been a friend to me
