[CHORUS] – – – – [C] Irene good [G] ni – i – ight.   Irene good [C] night. Goodnight Irene, good  [F] night Irene I’ll [G] see you in my [C] dreams

Quit your [C] ramblin’ stop your [G] gamblin’. Quit stayin’ out late at [C] night. Stay home with your wife and [F] family. Sit [G] down by the fireside [C] bright

The [C] music for now is [G] over,  we’ll be back, we won’t go [C] far.

•  With [C] Louis, and Dottie and [F]all the rest.  When [G]we return to the bar.
• 
When [C] Plaza Poets come [F]back again,  and [G]we return to the bar.
