Capo: 2

Traditional Scottish Song, its lyrical origins are at least 400 years old Not an attempt to copy anyone's cover, i just found the other versions here didn't sit well with me Not a bad tune to learn to play picking patterns with, its fairly slow and simple chords Standard Tuning, Open tuning for key of G capo on 2nd for key of A same chords relative to capo key G time sig 4/4 chord progression G Em C D G Em C D (1/2 bar) G chords G 320033 Em 022000 C x32010 D xx0232 suggested picking pattern 1 chord & string numbers G & EM 64312353 C 54312353 D 43212343 suggested picking pattern 2 chord & string numbers G & EM 63231323 C 53231323 D 43231323 where 1/2 bar D just the first 4 notes of the D pattern last G on the 2nd line of the progression; just a single base note is enough. Suck it and see :)

Of ^Gall the money that ^Eme'er I had I've ^Cspent it in good ^Dcompany And ^Gall the harm I've ^Emever done A-^Clas it was to ^Dnone but ^Gme And ^Gall I've done for ^Emwant of wit To ^Cmemory now I ^Dcan't recall So ^Gfill to me the ^Emparting glass Good ^Cnight and joy be ^Dwith you ^Gall

Oh, ^Gall the comrades that ^Eme'er I had They're ^Csorry for my ^Dgoing away And ^Gall the sweethearts that ^Eme'er I had They'd ^Cwish me one more ^Dday to ^Gstay But ^Gsince it falls un^Emto my lot That ^CI should rise and ^Dyou should not I'll ^Ggently rise and ^Emsoftly call Good ^Cnight and joy be ^Dwith you ^Gall

If ^GI had money e^Emnough to spend And ^Cleisure to sit a^Dwhile There ^Gis a fair maid ^Emin the town That ^Csorely has my ^Dheart be^Gguiled Her ^Grosy cheeks and ^Emruby lips I ^Cown she has my ^Dheart enthralled So ^Gfill to me the ^Emparting glass Good ^Cnight and joy be ^Dwith you ^Gall

optional chorus between verses

So ^Gfill to me the ^Emparting glass And ^Cdrink a health what ^De'er befalls I'll ^Ggently rise and ^Emsoftly call Good ^Cnight and joy be ^Dwith you ^Gall

optional repeat of last chorus line making preceding bar of G a half bar instead
