[Em] [Am]
[C] [Em]
[G]
[C] All the money that in [F] my whole life [C] I did spend
[G] Be it mine right [C] or wrongfully
I let it slip gladly to my friend
To [G] tie up the tie most [C] forcefully
Well the bottles [F] [C] are done
We've [Dm] killed [C] each one
And [Am] the table's full and [G] overflown
[F] And the corner [C] sign says [F] it's closing [C]
time
[F] So I'll bid farewell [G]
and be [C] down the road
[Am] Of all the money that [F] ever [G] I had
[C] I spent it in good [G] company
[Am] And of all the harm that ever [G] I'd done
[C] Alas it was to [F] none but me
[C] And [F] all I've [C] done for [F] want [C] of wit
[F] To memory [Dm] now I [G] can't recall
So [Am] fill to me [F] the parting [G] glass
[C] Good night and joy be [F] with you [Am] all
[Em]
[Am] [C]
[G] [Em]
[G] Oh [C] every boy that [F] [C] I've touched
[G] I did not do [C] it harmfully
And every boy [F] that ever [C] I've hurt
I [G] did not do [C] it knowingly
But to [F] remain [C] as friends
You [F] need [C] the [Am] time to make amends and stay [G] behind
And [F]
since my feet are [C] now fast
And [F] point away from [C] the past
[F] I'll bid farewell [G] and be down [C] the line
If [Am] I had [F] money enough to [G] spend
[C] And leisure time to [G] sit a while
There [Am] is a fair maid in this [G] town
[D] [C] That sorely has my [F] heart beguiled
[C] Her [F] rosy [C] cheeks, her ruby lips
I [F] own she has [G] my heart enthralled
So [Am]
[C] fill to me [F] the parting [G] glass
[C] Good night and joy be with [F] you all
[G] [Am] [Em]
[Dm] [C] [Em]
[C] [G]
[C] Oh if false clock tries to tick out my time
[G] To disgrace, distract [C] and bother me
And the dart of gossip [F] blows into [C] my face
[G] And the dust of rumour [C] covers me
But if [F] the arrow [C] is straight and the [Dm] point [Am] is slick
It can pierce through the dust no matter [G] how thick
So [F] I'll make [C] my stand [F] and remain [C] as I am
[F] And bid farewell [G]
and not give [C] a damn
[Am] Of all the comrades [F] that [G] ever I had
They [C] are sorry at my [G] going away
[Am] And of all the sweethearts [F] that ever [G] I had
[C] They would wish me one [F] more day to stay
[C] But [F] since [C] it falls [F] unto [C] my lot
[F] That I should rise [G] and you should not
[Am] I gently rise and [F] I [G] softly call
Good [C] night and joy be with you [F] all
[Am]
Of all the money [F] that ever [G] I had
[C] I spent it in [G] good company
[Am] And of all the harm [Dm] that ever I [G] done
[C] Alas it was [F] to none but me
[C] And [D] all [C] I've done for want of wit
To [F] memory now [G] I can't recall
[Am] So fill to me [F] the [G] parting glass
