D                  A
Foxes sleep in the forest
                     D
Lions sleep in their dens
                   G
Goats sleep on the mountainside
    A                D
And piggies sleep in pens

D         A                D
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
                     G
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
     A             D
I'll see you in my dreams

D                   A
Whales sleep in the ocean
                D
Zebras sleep on land
                    G
Hippos sleep by the riverside
A                   D
And camels sleep on sand

[Verse]
D         A                D
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
                     G
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
     A             D
I'll see you in my dreams

D                    A
Coyote sleeps in the canyon
                       D
And birdie sleeps in a tree
                       G
And when it's time for me to rest
   A                   D
My bed's the place for me

D         A                D
Irene goodnight, Irene goodnight
                     G
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
     A             D
I'll see you in my dreams

                     G
Goodnight Irene, goodnight Irene
     A             D
I'll see you in my dreams
