             Fare you well my honey, fare you well my only true one
          G                                    Dm               Bb                            F         F Bb F
             All the birds that were singin' are flown except you'll roll on...  

           F                               Bb
             Going to leave this Brokedown Palace
                         F                   Dm                Bb          F
             On my hands, on my knees, I will roll, roll, roll
                                      Am             Bb     F
             Make myself a bed by the waterside
                                          G               Bb           F
             In my time, in my time, I will roll, roll, roll

                                         A                       Bb                      F         G
                          In a bed, in a bed, by the waterside I will lay my head
                          F                            G                              Bb           F      Bb F
                          Listen to the river sing sweet songs to rock my soul


             River going to take me, sing me sweet and sleepy
             Sing me sweet and sleepy all the way back home
             It's a far gone lullaby sung many years ago
             Mama, mama many worlds I've come since I first left home

                          Goin' home, goin' home, by the waterside I will rest my bones
                          Listen to the river sing sweet songs to rock my soul

             Going to plant a weeping willow
             On the bank's green edge it will grow, grow, grow
             Sing a lullaby beside the water
             Lovers come and go, the river roll, roll, roll

                          Fare you well, fare you well, I love you more than words can tell
                          Listen to the river sing sweet songs to rock my soul

                          Fare you well, fare you well, I love you more than words can tell
                          Listen to the river sing sweet songs to rock my soul
                          I'm gonna listen to the river sing sweet songs to rock my soul...
