Irene Goodnight chords by Deer Tick

Intro: D7  G

G                        D7
I asked your mother for you,
                                G
she told me that you were too young
            G7            C
I wished to God I'd never seen your face,
     D7                  G
I'm sorry you ever were born

G          D7                G
Irene good-night, Irene good-night
G            G7        C                 D7            G
Goodnight Ir-ene, good-night Ir-ene I'll see you in my dreams

G                               D7
Sometimes I live in the country
                           G
sometimes I live in the town
G           G7           C
Sometimes I have a great not-ion
         D7                 G
to jump into the river and drown

G          D7                G
Irene good-night, Irene good-night
G            G7        C                 D7            G

I loves Irene, God knows I do
                           D
Love her till the sea runs dry
                   G
If Irene turns her back on me
          D    A            D
I'm gonna take morphine and die
