Goodnight Irene Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[INTRO]
[F6] | [C] | [G] | [C] | [C] | [C] | [C] |

Last [C]Saturday night I got [G]married,
Me and my wife settled[C] down.
Now me and my w[C7]ife are [F]parted;
Gonna [G]take another stroll down-[C]town.

[C]Irene, good-[G]night. Irene, good-[C]night.
Goodnight. I-[C7]rene. Good-[F]night, Irene.
I'll [G]see you in my [C]dreams.

[INTERLUDE]
[F6] | [C] | [G] | [C] | [C] | [C] | [C] |

Some-[C]times I live in the [G]country.
Sometimes I live in [C]town.
Sometimes I [C7]take a fool [F]notion
To [G]jumo in the river and [C]drown.

[C]Irene, good-[G]night. Irene, good-n[C]ight.
Goodnight. I-[C7]rene. Good-[F]night, Irene.
I'll [G]see you in my [C]dreams.

[INTERLUDE]

| [F6] | [C] [G] | [C] | [C] |

Stop you're [C]ramblin', stop you're[G] gamblin'.
Stop staying out late at[C] night.
Go home to your [C7]wife and[F] family.
Stay [G]there by the fireside [C]bright.

[C]Irene, good-[G]night. Irene, good-[C]night.
Goodnight. I-[C7]rene. Good-[F]night, Irene.
I'll [G]see you in my [C]dreams. [F6] [C]
