The Parting Glass by Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh
The Parting Glass
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 1st fret
[Verse]
Am F C G
Of all the money that I have had
Am C G
I spent it in good company
Am F C G
And of the harm that I have done
Am C F Am
Alas, it was to none but me
C F C F
And all I've done for want of wit
Dm C F G
To memory now, I can't recall
Am F C G
So fill to me the parting glass
Am C F Am
Goodnight and joy be with you all
[Verse]
F C G
Of all the comrades that I have had
Am C G
They are sorry for my going away
Am F C G
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
Am C F Am
They would wish me one more day to stay
C F C F
But since it falls unto my lot
Dm C F G
That I should rise and you should not
Am F C G
I'll gently rise and softly call
Am C F Am
"Goodnight and joy be with you all"
[Verse]
F C G
A man may drink and not be drunk
Am C G
A man may fight and not be slain
Am F C G
A man may court a pretty girl
Dm C F Am
And perhaps be welcomed back again
C F C F
But since it has so ordered been
Dm C F G
By a time to rise and a time to fall
Dm F G
Come fill to me the parting glass
Am C F G F
Goodnight and joy be with you all
Dm F G
Come fill to me the parting glass
Am C F G F
Goodnight and joy be with you all
