Jam Along & Learn...
My roots are embedded in Ireland.
I'm not talking about my hair because my hair
actually comes from my mother's side and she has no Irish connections whatsoever
so [G] people have it very wrong when they say all gingers come from [Ab] Ireland.
[Gm] [Bb]
[Db] So I kind of spend a lot of time listening to Chad music when I was
younger.
[Ab] I don't know if anyone is familiar with Plexi, I guess, Christie Moore and stuff like that.
[F] Paul Brady.
Yeah, I like you.
But basically there's a song that is kind of common to sing in [G] a bar around four o'clock [B] in the morning.
I mean we're almost there.
[Eb] This is a kind of song when you're on your final drink
and you've kind of got to your peak I guess.
You'll stick someone like me up on a bar 11 years old.
Sing it, sing it.
So [B] this is a [Cm] [B] song, for some reason this is totally switched off.
This is a song called The [Fm] Plexiglass.
How do you like it?
I'm going to [Cm] tune it.
[A] Can I, have we got the [Bm] tuner with the other batteries?
This is totally switched [C] off.
Are we on?
[N]
Okay, this is a song called The Plexiglass.
How do you like it?
There's nobody.
[B]
[Ab] [C]
There's [N] no
[A] one.
[B]
[N]
I've done [B]
for once of wits [N] to memory now I can't recall.
So fill tonight the parting glass.
[B] Good night and joy be with you all.
Of all the calm of [C] life ever I've had.
They are sorry for [N] my going away.
And all the sweet parts [B] that ever I had.
They [Bb] would wish me one more day to stay.
But since it falls unto my lot.
[Ab] That I should [F] rise and you [Fm] should know.
I'll gently rise [Ab] and I'll softly [Eb] call.
[Bb] Good night and joy be with [C] you all.
A man [Bbm] may drink [Abm] and not be drunk.
[Bb] [Bb] A man may fight and not be slain.
[C] A man [Abm] may call the pretty [Eb] girl.
And [Bb] perhaps be welcomed back again.
[Bbm] But since it [Fm] has [Db] so ought to be.
By [Eb] time to rise [Bb] and the time to fall.
Come fill tonight the parting glass.
Good night and joy be with you all.
Come fill tonight the parting [B] glass.
[Ab] Good night [F] and joy [Abm]
be with you all.
Very [N] good, thanks.
[Abm] [D] Thank you.
