Chord/Tab song: Wild Irish Rose

[Verse]
My daddy would not go to work on m[G]ornings
[G]He'd been out with Jack Daniel's all night [D]long
Though d[G]addy never cared too much for dancing
He [G]loved to hear a g[D]ood ol' country [G]song.

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

[Walk up to C]

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

[Verse]
M[G]y daddy always cried the morning after
M[G]om 'n him had argued for so [D]long
He s[G]aid, when I do right no one remembers
And for s[G]ure no one [D]forgets when I do [G]wrong.

[Walk up to C]

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

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