  16
  17 <p>Trad (assumedly written in the 1860s or '70s)<br />
  18 Performed by Arthur Smith Trio on Harry Smith's <em>Anthology of American Music </em>vol.
  19 4<br />
  20 Tabbed by Eyolf &Oslash;strem</p>

  22 <p>This is a deceptively simple tune, that just won't go away, so I had to tab it,
  23 although there is no Dylan content, whatsoever. I made it available in a <a href="../00_misc/adieu_false_heart.pdf">sheet music (pdf format)</a> version, in case anyone
  24 is interested.</p>

  83 Adieu false heart, since we must part
  84                    E7
  85 May the joy of the world go with you
  86                                     A
  87 I've loved you long with a faithful heart
  88
  89 but I never anymore can a-b'lieve you
  90
  91
  92 I've seen the time I'd have married you
  93 and been your constant lover
  94 but now I'll gladly give you up
  95 for one whose heart's more truer.
  96
  97 My mind is like the constant sun
  98 from the east to the west it ranges
  99 Yours is like unto the moon
 100 It's every month a-changing
 101
 102 When I lay down to take my rest
 103 no scornful morn to wake me
 104 I'll go straight ways unto my grave
 105 just as fast as time can take me.</pre>
