[Verse 1]
 
   Em      C          G      D
Oh all the money that e'er I spent
   Em      C       G     D
I spent it in good company
    Em      C         G         D
And all the harm that e'er I've done
  Em     G      D        G
Alas, it was to none but me 
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
    G        C        G       D
And all I've done for want of wit
   Am     D      Em     D
To memory now I can't recall
   Em      C      G       D
So fill to me the parting glass
     Em        G      D        G
Good night and joy be with you all
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
   Em    C         G     D
If I had money enough to spend
    Em      C       G     D
And leisure time to sit awhile
      Em   C         G       D
There is a fair maid in this town
     Em     G      D        G
That sorely has my heart beguiled
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
    G     C         G     D
Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips
   Am     D      Em        D
I own she has my heart enthralled
   Em      C      G       D
So fill to me the parting glass
     Em        G      D        G
Good night and joy be with you all

[Verse 3]
 
   Em       C            G         D
Oh all the comrades that e'er I've had
        Em    C      G     D
They're sorry for my going away
    Em       C               G          D
And all the sweethearts that e'er I've had
       Em      G         D      G
They’d wish me one more day to stay
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
    G        C        G    D
But since it falls unto my lot
     Am        D        Em          D
That I  should rise and you should not
     Em      C            G       D
I'll gently rise and I'll softly call
     Em        G      D        G
Good night and joy be with you all

But since it falls unto my lot
     Am        D        Em          D
That I  should rise and you should not
     Em      C            G       D
I'll gently rise and I'll softly call
     Em        G      D        G
Good night and joy be with you all
