There is a tavern

There is a Tavern in the Town

There is a tavern in the town, in the town,
and there my true love sits him down, sits him down,
and drinks his wine mid' laughter free
and never, never thinks of me.

        Fare thee well for I must leave thee,
        do not let this parting grieve thee,
        and remember that the best of friends must part, must part.
        Fare thee well for I must leave thee,
        do not let this parting grieve thee,
        and remember that the best of friends must part.

He left me for a damsel dark, damsel dark,
each Friday night they used to spark, used to spark,
and now my love once true to me
takes that dark damsel on his knee.

        Fare thee well for I must leave thee,
        do not let this parting grieve thee,
        and remember that the best of friends must part, must part.
        Fare thee well for I must leave thee,
        do not let this parting grieve thee,
        and remember that the best of friends must part.

Oh, dig my grave both wide and deep, wide and deep,
put tombstones at my head and feet, head and feet,
and on my brest carve a turtle dove
to signify I died of love.

        Fare thee well for I must leave thee,
        do not let this parting grieve thee,
        and remember that the best of friends must part, must part.
        Fare thee well for I must leave thee,
        do not let this parting grieve thee,
        and remember that the best of friends must part.

Adieu, adieu, kind friends, adieu, adieu,
I can no longer stay with you, stay with you,
I'll hang my harp on a weeping willow tree
and may the world go well with thee.

        Fare thee well for I must leave thee,
        do not let this parting grieve thee,
        and remember that the best of friends must part, must part.
        Fare thee well for I must leave thee,
        do not let this parting grieve thee,
        and remember that the best of friends must part.

Editing this page I used Arachnophilia. However, Arachnophilia is able to edit much more complicated pages. I am a beginner in editing HTML.
