Goodnight, Irene,
  E5       E5     A5
I get you in my dreams

    A5                   E5       E5
Sometimes I live in the country,
E5           E5      A5
sometimes I live in town
                         D5
Sometimes I take a great notion,
   E5             E5        A5
to jump into the river and drown

A5          E5    E5
Irene, goodnight
E5          A5
Irene, goodnight

Goodnight, Irene
    D5
Goodnight, Irene,
  E5       E5     A5
I get you in my dreams

A5                        E5       E5
Stop rambling, stop your gambling,
E5            E5          A5
stop staying out late at night
                              D5
Go home to your wife and your family,
E5               E5       A5
sit down by the fireside bright

A5          E5    E5
Irene, goodnight
E5          A5
Irene, goodnight

Goodnight, Irene
    D5
Goodnight, Irene,
  E5       E5     A5
I get you in my dreams

Last Saturday night, I got married,
E5         E5           A5
me and my wife settled down
                       D5
Now me and my wife are parted,
          E5            E5         A5
I`m gonna take another stroll downtown

A5          E5    E5
Irene, goodnight
E5          A5
Irene, goodnight

Goodnight, Irene
    D5
Goodnight, Irene,
  E5       E5     A5
I get you in my dreams

  A5                       E5  E5
I love Irene, God knows I do,
E5                      E5       A5
I`ll love her till the seas run dry
                            D5
But if Irene should turn me down,
    E5        E5           A5
I`d take the morphine and die

A5          E5    E5
Irene, goodnight
E5          A5
Irene, goodnight

Goodnight, Irene
    D5
Goodnight, Irene,
  E5       E5     A5
I get you in my dreams
