[Chorus]
G C G
And we'll drink to good companions and Irish whiskey neat
C G Am7 D
We'll drink to wives and lovers and we hope they never meet

We'll drink to rogues like us, may good fortune on us fall
G C D G
And when the toast comes round we'll drink to anything at all
[Verse 1]
G C G
Now when the day has ended and all the work is through

We gather at the alehouse and raise a glass or two

And as we set to drinkin we sing and dance and roar

And we become far merrier than we ever were before

[Verse 2]
G C G
From France we get good brandy, Jamaica has fine rum
C G Am7 D
And frothy pint of porter from dear old ireland comes
G C G D
England has their cider, the Scotch their single malt
G C G D
They're fine and tasty drinks my boys, with them we find no fault
[Chorus]
G C G
And we'll drink to good companions and Irish whiskey neat
C G Am7 D
We'll drink to wives and lovers and we hope they never meet

G C G
Now when the glass is empty, to another we'll agree
C G Am7 D
For the more we have to drink, sure the merrier we will be
G C G D
And the merrier we become, all our troubles fade away
G C D
They'll be there tomorrow but we're happier today
[Chorus]
G C G
And we'll drink to good companions and Irish whiskey neat
C G Am7 D
We'll drink to wives and lovers and we hope they never meet
G C G D
We'll drink to rogues like us, may good fortune on us fall
G C D G
And when the toast comes round we'll drink to anything at all
[Verse 4]
G C G
And when the night is over we'll go our separate ways
C G Am7 D
It's farewell to me comrades til we meet another day
G C G D
The parting brings us sorrow and it leaves a heavy heart
G C G D
So we'll ahve another glass, me boys, at least before we part
[Chorus]
G C G
And we'll drink to good companions and Irish whiskey neat
C G Am7 D
We'll drink to wives and lovers and we hope they never meet
G C G D
We'll drink to rogues like us, may good fortune on us fall
G C D G
And when the toast comes round we'll drink to anything at all
G C G
And we'll drink to good companions and Irish whiskey neat

We'll drink to wives and lovers and we hope they never meet
G C G D
We'll drink to rogues like us, may good fortune on us fall
G C D G
And when the toast comes round we'll drink to anything at all
