Lyrics
There (C)is a tavern in the town,
in the town, and there my dear love sits him (G7)down,
sits him down and (C)drinks his wine 'mid (F)laugh was ter to free and (G7)never,
never thinks of (F)(C)me.
(G7)Faretheewell, for I must leave thee,
do not (C)let this parting grieve thee,
and (G7)remember that the best of friends must (C)part,
(F)must (C)part.
Adieu, adieu, kind friends, adieu, adieu,
adieu, I can no longer stay with (G7)you,
stay with you,
I'll (C)hang my heart on a (F)weeping willow tree,
and (G7)may the world go well with (F)(G7)thee.
He (C)left me for a damsel dark,
damsel dark, each Friday night they used to (G7)spark,
used to spark,
and (C)now my love who (F)once was true to me takes (G7)this dark damsel on his (F)(C)knee.
(G7)Faretheewell, for I must leave thee,
do not (C)let this parting grieve thee,
and (G7)remember that the best of friends must (C)part,
(F)must (C)part.
Adieu, adieu, kind friends, adieu, adieu,
adieu, I can no longer stay with (G7)you,
stay with you,
I'll (C)hang my heart on a (F)weeping willow tree,
and (G7)may the world go well with (F)(G7)thee.
He (F)(C)thee.
