The Pogues - Parting Glass guitar tab

***The Parting Glass

from the CD5 version of Honky Tonk Women and Dirty Old Town single

The Parting Glass - as perfomed by The Pogues

Dm C

Of all the money that e'er I spent

Dm C

I've spent it in good company

Dm C

And all the harm that ever I did

Dm C Dm

Alas it was to none but me

F

And all I've done for want of wit

Gm F

To memory now I can't recall

Dm C

So fill to me the parting glass

Dm C Dm

Good night and joy be with you all

If I had money enough to spend

And leisure to sit awhile

There is a fair maid in the town

That sorely has my heart beguiled

Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips

I own she has my heart enthralled

So fill to me the parting glass

Good night and joy be with you all

Oh, all the comrades that e'er I had

They're sorry for my going away

And all the sweethearts that e'er I had

They'd wish me one more day to stay

But since it falls unto my lot

That I should rise and you should not

I'll gently rise and softly call

Good night and joy be with you all

***Version 2*** by Alex

Dm F C

Of all the money that e'er I spent

Dm C

I've spent it in good company

Dm F C

And all the harm that ever I did

Dm C Dm

Alas it was to none but me

F

And all I've done for want of wit

Gm F C

To memory now I can't recall

Dm F C

So fill to me the parting glass

Dm C Dm

Good night and joy be with you all

If I had money enough to spend

And leisure to sit awhile

There is a fair maid in the town

That sorely has my heart beguiled

Her rosy cheeks and ruby lips

I own she has my heart enthralled

So fill to me the parting glass

Good night and joy be with you all

Oh, all the comrades that e'er I had

They're sorry for my going away

And all the sweethearts that e'er I had

They'd wish me one more day to stay

But since it falls unto my lot

That I should rise and you should not

I'll gently rise and softly call

Good night and joy be with you all
