"Goodnight Irene" Eric Clapton

[Verse]
     A                    E
Last Saturday night I got married,
E                      A
Me and my wife settled down.
    A         A7       D
Now me and my wife are parted,
      B7            E          A
Gonna take a little stroll downtown.

[Chorus]
 A        E      E         A
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight.
A         A7     D         B7
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene.
E                  A
I´ll see you in my dreams.

[Verse]
     A                    E
Stop ramblin´, stop your gamblin´,
E               A
Stop stayin´out late at night.
                  A7            D
Come home to your wife and your family,
    B7         E       A
And sit by the fire so bright.


[Chorus]
 A        E      E         A
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight.
A         A7     D         B7
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene.
E                  A
I´ll see you in my dreams.

[Verse]
  A                       E
I love Irene, God knows I do,
E                 A
Love her ´til the rivers run dry.
                 A7           D
If Irene should ever turn her back on me,
      B7   E            A
Gonna take morphine and die.


 A        E      E         A
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight.
