"Wasn't That A Party?"

No personal notes.

Popularized by the Irish Rovers, this was actually written by Tom Paxton, an American folksong writer and performer.

Chorus:
Could've been the [D]whiskey, Might've been the gin
Could've been the three or four six-packs, 
I don't know, but [D7]look at the mess I'm in
My head is like a [G]football, I think I'm going to [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 neighbor's [A]tree

Chorus

[A]Billy, Joe and [G]Tommy, Well they went a little [D]far
They were [E]sittin' in the back seat, blowing on a siren Of somebody's police [A]car
[A]So you see, your [D]honor, 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

Chorus
