Wild Irish Rose

                                  G
My daddy would not go to work on mornings
G                                           D
He’d been out with Jack Daniel’s  all night long
        G
Though daddy never cared too much for dancing
   G                D               G
He loved to hear a good ol’ country song.

    C                              G
And son, he said, I never had much money
    G                              D
And I never had the time for fancy clothes
          G                              C
And I’ve always been a fool for Jim Beam whiskey
     G                  D                G
And I guess I’ve always loved Wild Irish Rose.

[Chorus]
C
Yes daddy was a gambler
    G
My daddy loved the racetrack
G                            D
What he saw in that God only knows
    C
He loved his wife and children
        G
But he also loved the horses
     G                D                G
And I guess he always loved Wild Irish Rose.

[Verse]
 G
My daddy always cried the morning after
 G                           D
Mom 'n him had argued for so long
    G                            C
He said, when I do right no one remembers
         G          D                 G
And for sure no one forgets when I do wrong.

[Verse]
    C                           G
But momma she accused my dad of cheating
    G                                    D
She swore that she could smell it on his clothes
    G                                C
So finally dad confessed his sins to momma
       G             D               G
And he told her all about Wild Irish Rose.

[Chorus]
C
Yes daddy was a gambler

G                            D
What he saw in that God only knows
    C
He loved his wife and children
        G
But he also loved the horses
     G                D                G
And I guess he always loved Wild Irish Rose.
