#1.
A           A7      D        A
Farewell to you, my own true love,
     C#m   F#m  E    E7
I am going far away.
     A         A7    D        A
I am bound for Cali..forn..i..a,
    C#m                E        A
And I know that I'll return someday.

CHORUS:
    E7                 D        A
So, fare thee well, my own true love,
                   C#m            E7
and when I return, united we will be.
             A          A7             D       A
It's not the leavin' of Liverpool that grieves me,
        C#m             E7       A
but, my darling, when I think of thee.

#2.
        A      A7     D       A
Oh, the sun is on the harbour now,
      C#m    F#m     E
and I wish I could remain.
      A       A7           D    A
But I know it will be some long time..
       C#m   E    A
before I see you again.

CHORUS:
    E7                 D        A
So, fare thee well, my own true love,
                   C#m            E7
and when I return, united we will be.
             A          A7             D       A
It's not the leavin' of Liverpool that grieves me,
        C#m             E        A
but, my darling, when I think of thee.
