G                         D 
Last Saturday night, I got married 
D                       G 
Me and my wife settled down 
G            G7           C 
Now me and my wife are parted 
         D                        G 
I'm gonna take another stroll downtown 

Chorus: 
G         D        D       G 
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight, 
G           G7      C 
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene, 
D                     G 
I'll see you in my dreams 


Stop rambling, stop your gambling, 
Stop staying out late at night 
Go home to your wife and family 
Stay there by your fireside bright 

(Chorus) 

I love Irene God, I swear I do 
Love her till the seas run dry 
And if Irene turns her back on me, 
I'll take morphine and die 

(Chorus)
