[G]Fare you well, my [Am]honey, [Bb]fare you well my only true [C]one.
[G]All the birds that were [Dm]singing are [Bb]flown, except you [C]alone
[F]Going to leave this [Bb]Broke-down Palace,
[F]On my hands and [Dm]knees, I will [Bb]roll, [F]roll, [Gm]roll
[F]Make myself a [A]bed by the [Bb]waterside,[F]
[F]In my time, in my [G]time, I will [Bb]roll, r[F]oll, roll
[F]In a bed, [A]in a bed, by the [Bb]waterside I will [F]lay my [G]head
[F]Listen to the river [G]sing sweet songs to [Bb]rock my [F]soul
River gonna 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
Going home, going 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.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official GRATEFUL DEAD tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
