[B]
Oh, Paul,
[Gb]
[Db] I [Gb] spent it in [B] good [Db] company,
[B] And of all the harm [Gb] that e'er I've [E] done,
[Gb] Alas, it was [B] to [Ebm] none but thee,
And all I've done for [Gb] thee is to [B] my memory now
[Ebm]
[Bbm] So [B] fill to me a [Gb] parting [Db]
glass,
[Gb] Good life [Bbm] and joy be [Ebm] [Ab] with you.
[Ebm]
Of all the [Bbm]
kisses [Ebm] e'er I've [Abm] had,
[Ebm] There's sorry I fall for my gold.
[Db]
[B] Of all the [Ebm]
[Abm] sweethearts that e'er [Db] I've [Gb] had,
They would [Ebm] wish me one more [B] day to stay.
But [Ebm] since it falls unto my [Gb] blood,
[B] That I should rise [Ebm] and you should [Bbm] know,
[B] [Abm] Is [Gb] this softly [Db] called good [Gb] life [Bbm] and joy be [Ebm] with you?
A man may [B] drink [Gb] and not be [Db] drunk,
[Gb] A man [Ebm] may fight and not be slain,
A man may court [Gb] a pretty [E] girl,
And [Gb] perhaps be welcomed [B] [Ebm] home.
[B] But since it [Ebm] has so wonderfully [Gb] been,
[Abm] A time to rise and [Ebm] a time to [Bbm] go,
[B] Fill to [Abm] me [Gb] a parting [Db]
glass,
Good [Ebm] life [Bbm] and joy [Ebm] be [Ab] with you.
So [B] good life and [Bbm]
joy [Ebm] be with [Abm]
[Eb]
you.
