The parting glass
Am ~
C Am G
1. Of all the money that e'er I had,
C G
I've spent it in good company,
Am C G
and of
all the harm that ever I done,
C Am
alas,
it was to none but me.
C
And all I've done for want of
wit
G G7
to
memory now I can't recall.
Am C G
So fill to me the parting
glass,
C Am
good
night and joy be with you all.
C Am G
3. Of all the friends that ever I had,
C G
they
are sorry at my going away,
Am C G
and
of all the sweethearts that ever I had,
C Am
they
would wish me one more day to stay.
C
But since it falls unto my lot
G G7
that
I should rise and you should not,
Am C G
I’ll softly rise and I’ll
gently call,
C
Am
good
night and joy be with you all.
C Am G
3. If I had money enough to spend
C G
and
leisure time to sit awhile,
Am C G
there
is a fair maid in the town
C Am
who
sorely has my heart beguiled.
C
Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips,
G G7
I own she has my heart
enthralled.
Am C G
So fill to me the parting
glass,
C Am
Good night, and joy be with
you all !
