[VERSE 1]
C Am F C G
Of all the money that e'er I had,
C C G
I spent it in good company.
Am F C G
And all the harm I've ever done,
C Am F
alas it was to none but me.
C F C C F G
And all I've done for want of wit
F C G
to mem'ry now I can't recall;
Am F C G
So fill to me the parting glass,
C Am F
Good night and joy be to you all.
[CHORUS 1]

[So] fill to me the parting glass
G Am F G
And drink a health whate’er befalls
Am F G C
And gently rise and softly call
C Am F
Good night and joy be to you all
[VERSE 2]

Of all the comrades that e'er I had,

They're sorry for my going away.
Am F C
And all my sweethearts that e'er I had,

They'd wish me one more day to stay.
C Am C G
But since it fell unto my lot,
G Am F G
That I should rise and you should not,

I gently rise and softly call,

Good night and joy be to you all.
