Misc Traditional – The Parting Glass (Guitar)

Dm                    F      C
Of all the money that ere I had, 

     Dm                  C
I spent it in good company. 

            Dm             C
And all the harm that ere I done, 

Dm     C                Dm
Alas! It was to none but me. 

      F
And all Ive done for want of wit, 

      Gm                F
To memory now I cant recall. 

     Dm                    C
So fill to me the parting glass. 

     Dm            C          Dm
Goodnight and joy be with you all.

Dm                          C
Oh, all the comrades that ere I had, 

         Dm                   C
They're sorry for my going away, 

          Dm                    C
And all the sweethearts that ere I had, 

Dm                   C              Dm
They’d wish me one more day to stay 

        F
But since it falls unto my lot 

            Gm                F
That I should rise and you should not, 

         Dm                         C
I will gently rise and I'll softly call, 

      Dm       C                Dm
"Goodnight and joy be with you all!"

Dm               F              C
Oh, if I had enough money to spend 

      Dm                 C
And leisure time to sit awhile 

     Dm              F        C
There is a fair maid in this town 

Dm     C                    Dm
That sorely has my heart beguiled 

        F 
Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips, 

Gm           F                C
I own she has my heart in thrall. 

     Dm                 F         C
So fill to me the parting glass. 

        Dm           C                Dm
“Goodnight and joy be with you all.”
