G Fare thee well, C G My own true love. Farewell for a while, Em D I'm going away. C G But I'll be back, Em C Though I go ten thousand miles. The rest of the song is the same: 10,000 miles My own true love 10,000 miles or more The rocks may melt And the seas may burn If I should not return Oh don't you see That lonesome dove Sitting on an ivy tree She's weeping for Her own true love As I shall weep for mine Oh come ye back My own true love And stay a while with me If I had a friend All on this earth You've been a friend to me
