The Parting Glass

Intro: Gbm  D  A  E

  Gbm                  A      
Of all the money that e'er I had
     Gbm              A     E
I've spent it in good company
    Gbm               A          
And all the harm that e'er I've done
 Gbm           Bm       Gbm
Alas it was to none but me
    A                 A       
And all I've done for want of wit
   Bm           Gbm     E
To memory now I can't recall
   Gbm             A       
So fill to me the parting glass
     Gbm              Bm       Gbm
Good night and joy be with you all


  Gbm                     A 
Of all the comrades that e'er I had
        Gbm            A      E
They are sorry for my going away
    Gbm                       A
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
           Gbm               Bm      Gbm
They would wish me one more day to stay
    A               A
But since it falls unto my lot
    Bm                 Gbm         E
That I should rise and you should not
      Gbm                  A
I'll gently rise and I'll softly call
     Gbm              Bm       Gbm
Good night and joy be with you all


  Gbm                A
A man may drink and not be drunk
  Gbm                A      E
A man may fight and not be slain
  Gbm              A    
A man may court a pretty girl
    Gbm                  Bm   Gbm
And perhaps be welcomed back again
    A               A 
But since it has so ordered been
     Bm                 Gbm      E
By a time to rise and a time to fall
     Gbm             A
Come fill to me the parting glass
     Gbm              Bm       Gbm
Good night and joy be with you all
     Gbm              Bm       Gbm
Good night and joy be with you all
