Fiddlers Green

     C             F          
As I walked by the dockside one 
  C          Am
evening so rare,
   C              F          C   
to view the still waters and take
          G
 the salt air.
  F                      Cadd9
I heard an old fisherman singing 
this song:
    C        G7           C      
O-h take me away boys, me time is
     G
 not long.

[Chorus]
         C        G7         
Dress me up in me oilskins and 
  C
jumper,
   F           C             G
no more on the docks I'll be seen.
     F                          
Just tell me old ship-mates, I'm 
 C        Em
taking a trip, mates,
    G                      
and I'll see you someday in 
 G7        C
Fiddler's Green.

[Verse 2]
    C         F          C       
Now Fiddler's Green is a place 
         Am
I've heard tell,
      C         F          C     
where fishermen go if they don't 
      G
go to hell.
          F                       
Where the weather is fair and the 
Cadd9
dolphins do play,
        C             G7           
and the cold coast of Greenland is 
C        G
far, far away.

[Chorus]
         C        G7         
Dress me up in me oilskins and 
  C
jumper,
   F           C             G
no more on the docks I'll be seen.
     F                          
Just tell me old ship-mates, I'm 
 C        Em
taking a trip, mates,
    G                      
and I'll see you someday in 
 G7        C
Fiddler's Green.

[Verse 3]
        C            F       
Now the sky's always clear and 
          C       Am
there's never a gale,
Continúa después del anuncio
    C            F            C  
and fish jump on board with a 
           G
flip of their tail.
        F                          
You can lie at your leisure, 
  Cadd9
there's no work to do,
        C           G7          C
and the skipper's below, making 
           G
tea for the crew.

[Chorus]
         C        G7         
Dress me up in me oilskins and 
  C
jumper,
   F           C             G
no more on the docks I'll be seen.
     F                          
Just tell me old ship-mates, I'm 
 C        Em
taking a trip, mates,
    G                      
and I'll see you someday in 
 G7        C
Fiddler's Green.

[Verse 4]
    C              F            C
And when you're in dock and the 
            Am
long trip is through,
        C                F        
there’s pubs and there's clubs and
         C              G
 there's lassies there, too.
        F                          
Now the girls are all pretty and 
  Cadd9
the beer is all free,
            C          G7          
and there’s bottles of rum growing 
C        G
on every tree.

[Chorus]
         C        G7         
Dress me up in me oilskins and 
  C
jumper,
   F           C             G
no more on the docks I'll be seen.
     F                          
Just tell me old ship-mates, I'm 
 C        Em
taking a trip, mates,
    G                      
and I'll see you someday in 
 G7        C
Fiddler's Green.

[Verse 5]
      C            F          C  
But I don't want a harp nor a 
       Am
halo, not me.
     C         F            C    
Just give me a breeze and a good 
        G
rolling sea.
         F                         
And I’ll play me old squeezebox as 
Cadd9
we sail along,
         C           G7         C
with the wind in the rigging to 
         G
sing me a song.

[Chorus]
         C        G7         
Dress me up in me oilskins and 
  C
jumper,
   F           C             G
no more on the docks I'll be seen.
     F                          
Just tell me old ship-mates, I'm 
 C        Em
taking a trip, mates,
    G                      
and I'll see you someday in 
 G7        C
Fiddler's Green.

[Otro]
     F                          
Just tell me old ship-mates, I'm 
 C        Em
taking a trip, mates,
    G                      
and I'll see you someday in 
 G7        C
Fiddler's Green.
