Goodnight Irene

C

[Verse]
                          G7
Last Saturday night I got married
                       C
Me and my wife settled down
                          F       Dm
Now me and my wife, we're parted
          G7                 
I'm gonna take another stroll 
     C
downtown

[Chorus]
          G7
Irene goodnight
          C
Irene goodnight
           C7        F      Dm
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
     G7            C
I'll see you in my dreams

[Verse]
                             G7
Some folks, they live in the country
                             C
Some folks, they live in the town
                        F       Dm
Sometimes I get a great notion
   G7                      C
To jump into the river and drown

Continues after the ad
[Chorus]
          G7
Irene goodnight
          C
Irene goodnight
           C7        F      Dm
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
     G7            C
I'll see you in my dreams

[Verse]
Stop your ramblin', stop your 
G7
gamblin'
                         C
Stop staying out late at night
                         F       Dm
Go home to your wife and family
     G7                 C
Stay in by the fireside light

[Chorus]
          G7
Irene goodnight

I'll love you till the seas run dry
                       F     Dm
And if ever you should leave me
     G7                C
I'll take morphine and die

[Chorus]
