[Intro: D G / D A / D / A / D G / D A / D / Bm] D G D A Of all the money that e'er I've spent D A I spent it in good company D G D A And of all the harm that e'er I've done D Bm Alas 'twas done to none but me D A And all I've done for want of wit G Em A To memory now I can't recall D G D A So fill to me the parting glass D Bm Good night and joy be with you all. [Break: D G / D A / D / A / D G / D A / D / Bm] D G D A Of all the comrades that e'er I've had D A They're sorry for my going away D G D A And of all the sweethearts e'er I've had D Bm They wish me one more day to stay D A But since it falls unto my lot G Em A That I should rise and you should not G D A I'll gently rise and softly call D Bm Goodnight and joy be with you all.
