Goodnight Irene

[Verse 1]
Eb                       Bb7
When I asked your mother for you
                         Eb
She told me you were too young
                            Ab
Now I wish I had never even seen 
your face
   Bb7              Eb
Or heard your lying tongue
Eb                      Bb7
So Saturday night I got married
                       Eb
Me and my wife settled down
                       Ab
Now me and my wife are parted
          Bb7                
I'm gonna take another stroll 
     Eb
downtown

Irene goodnight, goodnight Irene,

I'll see you in my dream

[Verse 2]
Eb                      Bb7
Sometimes I live in the country
                    Eb
Sometimes I live in town
                         Ab
Sometimes I have a great notion
   Bb7                     Eb
To jump into the river and drown
Oh, stop your ramblin', stop you 
Bb7
gamblin'
                   Eb
Stayin out late at night
                         Ab
Go home to your wife and family
    Bb7                   Eb
Sit down by the fireside, bright

[Chorus]
Eb                         Bb7
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
          Eb
Irene goodnight, goodnight Irene,
    Ab
goodnight Irene,
Bb7                Eb
I'll see you in my dream
