  • I own none of this video.
    This is Bobby singing his underrated beauty, "Farewell." This performance was recorded on February 8, 1963, likely in the basement of the Gaslight Poetry Cafe in Greenwich Village, NYC. Bobby plays a 12-string guitar while another plays banjo and harmonizes.
    I ripped this off of a clean copy of the famous Dylan bootleg "Seems Like A Freeze Out," pressed by TMQ in the early 70's. More tracks to come. Enjoy this gem while you can!

    exciting interpretation of this beautiful song, with a cough at the end
    Oh it's fare thee well my darlin' true,
    I'm leavin' in the first hour of the morn.
    I'm bound off for the bay of Mexico
    Or maybe the coast of Californ.
    So it's fare thee well my own true love,
    We'll meet another day, another time.
    It ain't the leavin'
    That's a-grievin' me
    But my true love who's bound to stay behind.
    Oh the weather is against me and the wind blows hard
    And the rain she's a-turnin' into hail.
    I still might strike it lucky on a highway goin' west,
    Though I'm travelin' on a path beaten trail.
    So it's fare thee well my own true love,
    We'll meet another day, another time.
    It ain't the leavin'
    That's a-grievin' me
    But my true love who's bound to stay behind.
    I will write you a letter from time to time,
    As I'm ramblin' you can travel with me too.
    With my head, my heart and my hands, my love,
    I will send what I learn back home to you.
    So it's fare thee well my own true love,
    We'll meet another day, another time.
    It ain't the leavin'
    That's a-grievin' me
    But my true love who's bound to stay behind.
    I will tell you of the laughter and of troubles,
    Be them somebody else's or my own.
    With my hands in my pockets and my coat collar high,
    I will travel unnoticed and unknown.
    So it's fare thee well my own true love,
    We'll meet another day, another time.
    It ain't the leavin'
    That's a-grievin' me
    But my true love who's bound to stay behind.
    I've heard tell of a town where I might as well be bound,
    It's down around the old Mexican plains.
    They say that the people are all friendly there
    And all they ask of you is your name.
    So it's fare thee well my own true love,
    We'll meet another day, another time.
    It ain't the leavin'
    That's a-grievin' me
    But my true love who's bound to stay behind

    According to Wikipedia, this rendition of the song was recorded in the apartment of Gil Turner, a friend of Dylan's who worked at Gerde's Folk City in Greenwich Village. The source of that is Happy Traum who is backing Dylan on banjo and harmonies. The version used in the Coen Brothers film Inside Llewyn Davis is from the Witmark publishing company demos. Even better is the one that appears on the film's soundtrack CD, definitely a studio recording. What's not clear is when. Dylan recorded Farewell once during the Freewheelin' sessions, four times for Times They Are a-Changin' and once for Another Side of Bob Dylan. My guess: the last of these, though it would take more research to settle the issue. Here's the RUclips link for soundtrack version: ruclips.net/video/jR-yPonzrKY/видео.html

      Actually wrote all the words to the verses, based the chorus on the leaving of Liverpool, but It’s not the same and Dylan’s Version is way better, and the melody is loosely based on the leaving of Liverpool.

    Great early Dylan, but it's a ripoff of the Irish folk song Leaving of Liverpool, and he probably picked it up min the Village, where he hung out with the Dubliners and others. Play the Pogues' version of the folk song.
