Wasn't That a Party - Irish Rovers
Could've been the
D
whiskey, might have been the gin
Could've been the three or four six-packs, I don't know
But look at the mess I'm in.
My head is like a
G
football, I think I'm gonna
D
die
Tell me
A
me oh, me oh my, wasn't that a
D
party
Someone took a
D
grapefruit, wore it like a hat
I saw someone under my kitchen table
Talking to my old tom cat
They were talking about
G
hockey, the cat was talking
D
back
Long about
A
then everything went black, wasn't that a
D
party
I'm sure it's just my
G
memory playing tricks on
D
me
But I
E
think I saw my buddy cutting down my neighbour's
A
tree
Billy, Joe and
G
Tommy, they went a little
D
far
They were
E
sitting in the back yard, blowing on a siren in somebody's police
A
car
So you see, Your
D
Honour, it was all in fun
The little bitty track meet down on main street
Was just to see if the cops could run
Well, they run us in to
G
see you, in an alcoholic
D
haze
I sure can
A
use those thirty days to recover from the
D
party
KEY CHANGE TO E, REPEAT CHORUS
