Restless Farewell by Joan Baez
Restless Farewell
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
D G D
Oh all the money that in my whole life I spent
A D
Be it mine right or wrongfully
D G D
I'd let it slip gladly past the hands of my friends
A D
To tie up the time most forcefully
D G D G D
But the bottles are done, we've killed each one
Bm F#m A
And the table is full and overflowed
D
And the corner sign says it's closing time
G F#m A Bm D
So I'll bid farewell and be down the road
[Verse 2]
D G D
Oh every boy that ever I've touched
A D
I did not do it harmfully
D G D
And every boy that ever I've hurt
A D
I did not do it knowingly
D G D G D
But to remain as friends, you need the time
Bm F#m A
To make amends and stay behind
D G D
And since my feet are now fast
G D
And point away from the past
G F#m A Bm D
I'll bid farewell and be down the line
[Verse 3]
D G D
Oh every foe that ever I faced
A D
The cause was there before we came
D G D
And every cause that ever I fought
A D
I fought it full without regret or shame
D G D G D
But the dark does die as the curtain is drawn
Bm F#m A
And somebody's eyes must meet the dawn
D G D G D
And if I see the day I'd only have to stay
G F#m A Bm D
So I'll bid farewell in the night and be gone
[Verse 4]
D G D
Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
A D
To disgrace, distract and bother me
D G D
And the dirt of gossip blows into my face
A D
And the dust of rumors covers me
D G D G D
But if the arrow is straight and the point is slick
Bm F#m A
It can pierce through the dust no matter how thick
D G D G D
So I'll make my stand and remain as I am
G F#m A Bm D
And bid farewell and not give a damn
