Walking down that long lonesome road, babe,

Where I'm bound, I can't tell.

Goodbye is too good a word, yeah,
F# F#7 B B7
So I'll just say fare thee well.

I ain't saying you treated me unkind.

You could've done better, baby, but I don't mind.
E B C#m A
You just kind of wasted my precious time.
E B E
Lord, but don't think twice, don't think twice, it's all right.
Finish off with intro solo. Clapton uses pretty much the same as Dylan's version but
different words.
Enjoy!
