D                   G      D                   
If I had wings like Noah's dove 
            Bm           G      D                       
I'd fly the river to the one that I love 
D               G   D      A         D            
Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well 


D                    G        D               
I had a man, who was long and tall 
             Bm          G      D                  
He moved his body like a cannon ball 
D               G   D     A          D                                      
Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well 

D                             G       D      
I remember one evening in the pouring rain 
          Bm                 G      D        
And in my heart there was an aching pain 
D               G   D     A          D           
Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well 

D                G         D         
Muddy river runs muddy and wild 
               Bm              G      D        
You can't give a bloody for my unborn child 
D               G   D     A          D       
Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well 

D                             G      D       
Just as sure as the birds are flying high 
                Bm                      G           D        
Life ain't worth living if you ain't with the man you love 
D               G  D      A          D        
Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well 


Fare thee well, my honey, fare thee well
