Wild Irish Rose chords by David Allan Coe

Chords with lyrics

[Verse]
                 G+G
My daddy would not go to work on mornings
G+G                      D MajorD
He’d been out with Jack Daniel’s all night long
    G+G
Though daddy never cared too much for dancing
  G+G        D MajorD        G+G
He loved to hear a good ol’ country song.

[Verse]
  C majorC               G+G
And son, he said, I never had much money
  G+G               D MajorD
And I never had the time for fancy clothes
     G+G               C majorC
And I’ve always been a fool for Jim Beam whiskey
   G+G         D MajorD        G+G
And I guess I’ve always loved Wild Irish Rose.

[Chorus]
C majorC
Yes daddy was a gambler
  G+G
My daddy loved the racetrack
G+G              D MajorD
What he saw in that God only knows
  C majorC
He loved his wife and children
    G+G
But he also loved the horses
   G+G        D MajorD        G+G
And I guess he always loved Wild Irish Rose.

[Verse]
 G+G
My daddy always cried the morning after
 G+G              D MajorD
Mom 'n him had argued for so long
  G+G
He said, when I do right no one remembers
     G+G     D MajorD         G+G
And for sure no one forgets when I do wrong.

[Verse]
  C majorC              G+G
But momma she accused my dad of cheating
  G+G                  D MajorD
She swore that she could smell it on his clothes
  G+G                C majorC
So finally dad confessed his sins to momma
    G+G       D MajorD        G+G
And he told her all about Wild Irish Rose.

[Chorus]
C majorC
Yes daddy was a gambler
  G+G
My daddy loved the racetrack
G+G              D MajorD
What he saw in that God only knows
  C majorC
He loved his wife and children
    G+G
But he also loved the horses
   G+G        D MajorD        G+G
