[Intro]
C F Dm G
[Verse 1]
C F
Last night I dreamed that we were back
Dm G
Down by the railroad tracks, smoking Marlboro cigarettes
C F
We threw our shoes into the river
Dm G
And our mothers called each other, they were wonderin' where the kids were,
C F
'cause they woke up and we were gone
Dm G
We were running down the parkway singing some old gypsy songs
[Chorus]
C Em
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene,
Dm G
I swear this world ain't as bad as the papers make it seem
C Em
And in the morning, we'll all be fine
Dm G
So if you're scared, darling, put your little hand in mine
[Verse 2]
C F
All the grownups standing in the other room
Dm G
They were talking about money and what's happening on the news
C F
But we were laughing about nothing
Dm G C
We were sitting in the kitchen drinking rum and eating dandelion soup
F
And it was true
Dm G
We didn't give a damn that we could fill an ocean with the things we never
knew
[Chorus]
C Em
Goodnight Irene, Goodnight Irene,
Dm G
I swear this world ain't as bad as the papers make it seem
C Em
And in the morning, we'll all be fine
Dm G
So if you're scared, darling, put your little hand in mine
