[Intro]
 
G                 Am     Bb         F                 C
Fare you well, my honey, fare you well my only true one.
G                       Dm          Bb                 C          F
All the birds that were singing are flown, except you alone.
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
F                    Bb
Going to leave this brokedown palace,
      F            Dm            Bb           F
On my hands and my knees, I will roll, roll, roll.
F             Am         Bb    F
Make myself a bed by the waterside,
                  G            Bb          F
In my time, In my time, I will roll, roll roll.
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
F         A
In a bed, in a bed,
       Bb                F      G
By the waterside I will lay my head.
F                     G                   Bb      F
Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
F                       Bb
River going to take me, sing me sweet and sleepy,
F                 Dm             Bb       F
Sing me sweet and sleepy all the way back home.
F                 Am           Bb        F
It's a far gone lullaby, sung many years ago.
                G                      Bb            F
Mama, mama many worlds I've come since I first left home.
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
F           A
Goin' home, goin' home,
       Bb                F       G
By the waterside I will rest my bones,
F                   G                    Bb       F
Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
F                Bb
Going to plant a weeping willow,
F                   Dm            Bb           F
On the bank's green edge it will grow, grow, grow.
F           Am   Bb         F
Sing a lullaby beside the water,
                G             Bb           F
Lovers come and go, the river roll, roll, roll.
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
F              A
Fare you well, fare you well,
  Bb                  F         G
I love you more than words can tell,
F                   G                    Bb       F
Listen to the river sing sweet songs, to rock my soul.

       F              Bb
Doo do doo, do da do, doo-oo
F       G       Bb     F
Doo, do doo, da doo da doo
       F              Bb     F
Doo do doo, do da do, doo da doo
F       G       Bb     F
Doo, do doo, da doo da doo
