Intro: D7D7 G+G

G+G            D7D7
I asked your mother for you,
                G+G
she told me that you were too young
      G7G7      C majorC
I wished to God I'd never seen your face,
   D7D7         G+G
I'm sorry you ever were born

G+G     D7D7        G+G
Irene good-night, Irene good-night
G+G      G7G7    C majorC         D7D7      G+G
Goodnight Ir-ene, good-night Ir-ene I'll see you in my dreams

G+G                D7D7
Sometimes I live in the country
              G+G
sometimes I live in the town
G+G      G7G7      C majorC
Sometimes I have a great not-ion
     D7D7         G+G
to jump into the river and drown

G+G     D7D7        G+G
Irene good-night, Irene good-night
G+G      G7G7    C majorC         D7D7      G+G
Goodnight Ir-ene, good-night Ir-ene I'll see you in my dreams 2 3 1 2 3
