There Is A Tav -ern In The Town in the town

And there my true love sits him down sits him down

And drinks his wine 'mid laugh -ter gay and free

But nev -er nev -er thinks of me

Fare the well for I must leave thee do not let the part -ing grieve thee

And re -mem -ber that the best of friends must part must part

A -dieu a -dieu kind friends a -dieu a -dieu a -dieu

I can no long -er stay with you stay with you

And I will hang my harp on a weep -ing wil -low tree

And may the world go well with thee.
