[Am] [E]
[F] [G]
Darling [Am] it's so dark [E] in this house except [F] for this light
My slow [G]
candle burning and I [Am] know you're somewhere
I [E] always did feel it
I [F] got a new song you might [G]
never hear
Goodnight [C]
Irene I [Am] got your trouble
I [F] read your letters you sent [G] like a bomb
And when [C]
you're gone we're [Am] all gonna miss you
Your [F] perfume like cigarettes and the sea
A name [G] that you always wore like grief
Goodnight [C]
Irene I grew up [Am] kinda lonesome
The saint [E] of the sinners, the voice [F] of the dorks
You find [G] in the rain
So I [Am] just keep working, I [E] just keep driving
Nobody [F]
writes the blues [G]
anymore
[C]
Goodnight Irene I [Am] got your trouble
I [F] read your letters you sent [G] like a bomb
But [C] when you're gone we're all [Am] gonna miss you
Your perfume [F]
like cigarettes and the sea
A name [G] that you always wore like grief
And [Am] in my mind [C] there's a dream where the telephone rang
[Am] Just before [G] the ring [C] took a bow
And abandoned [Am] her hanged [G] in a closet [F] where [C] white dresses hang
While I was declaring [G] war
Goodnight [C] Irene I [Am] got your trouble
I [F] read your letters you sent [G] like a bomb
And [C] when you're gone we're all [Am] gonna miss you
Your perfume [F] like cigarettes and the sea
A name that [G] you always wore like grief [C] Goodnight Irene
