[Intro]
G G7

[Chorus]
G
Look what you made me do
G7
Got nothing left to lose
Em
It's like I barely knew
     C       Cm
you at all (Mhm)
G
Isn't it such a shame
G7
We could've drove away
Em
It's like I barely knew you
C                  Cm
Or even had you to lose you

[Post-Chorus]
G
 You're makin' it worse,
                 G7
 it's makin' me hurt
I dive in head-first,
              Em
 you go in reverse
                      C
Made me feel like I'm living a lie
                 Cm
But, it would be nice
                      G
without an Irish goodbye

[Verse]
Feel a little (Uh-uh)
               G7
In the middle (Uh-uh)
Living riddles (Uh-uh)
            Em
If only you knew
You're something special (Uh-uh)
                   C
It made me mental (Uh-uh)
             Cm
Sentimental (Uh-uh)
               G
Thinkin' 'bout you got my
               B7
 love and my devotion
     Em
If I can't love you, then
                 C        D
 no one else is, me and you

[Chorus]
G
Look what you made me do
G7
Got nothing left to lose
Em
It's like I barely knew
      C       Cm
you at all (Mhm)
G
Isn't it such a shame
G7
We could've drove away
Em
It's like I barely knew you
C                  D
Or even had you to lose you

[Post-Chorus]
G
 You're makin' it worse,
                 G7
 it's makin' me hurt
I dive in head-first,
              Em
 you go in reverse
                      C
Made me feel like I'm living a lie
But, it would be nice
 without an Irish goodbye

How to play Irish Goodbye: key, chords and progression
