[VERSE 1]
                     F            
As I walked down the dockside one 
C          Am
evening so fair
   C              F             C
To view the still waters and to 
             G
take the salt air
  F                      C
I heard an old fisherman singing a 
song
          G                     C 
He said, "Take me away lads, me 
          G
time is not long"


[CHORUS]
        C        G            C
Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumper
   F           C             G
No more on the docks I'll be seen
     F                         
Just tell me old shipmates, I'm 
 C
taking a trip mates
    G                      
And I'll see you one day in 
           C       G   C
Fiddler's Green


[VERSE 2]
               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 
C
dolphins do play

        G                          
And the cold coasts of Greenland 
  C         G
are far, far away


[CHORUS]
        C        G            C
Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumper
   F           C             G
No more on the docks I'll be seen
     F                         
Just tell me old shipmates, I'm 
 C

And I'll see you one day in

[VERSE 3]
                   F               
Oh, the weather is fair and there's
 C       Am
 never a gale
        C          F              
And the fish jump aboard with one 
C              G
swish of their tail
        F                          
You can lie in your hammock, 
  C
there's no work to do
        G                      C  
And the skipper's below making tea
         G
 for the crew


[CHORUS]
        C        G            C
Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumper
   F           C             G
No more on the docks I'll be seen
     F                         
Just tell me old shipmates, I'm 
 C
taking a trip mates
    G                      
And I'll see you one day in 
           C       G   C
Fiddler's Green


[VERSE 4]
                   F          C   
Oh, I don't need 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 this old squeezebox 
  C
as we sail along
         G                      C 
With the wind in the rigging to 
        G
sing me a song


[CHORUS]
        C        G            C
Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumper
   F           C             G
No more on the docks I'll be seen
     F                         
Just tell me old shipmates, I'm 
 C
taking a trip mates

And I'll see you one day in
