[B] [A]
[D]
I wish [Em] I was in [Bm] Carrick, Fergus Only [Em] for nights now [E] in [Bm] Ballygram
I would [G] swim over the deepest [Bm] ocean, the deepest [Em] ocean
[G] For my love [D] to find what the [Bm] sea is wide
And I cannot [F#m] swim over, neither [Bm] have I [Em] the wings to [G] fly
[A] If [D] I [Em] could find me [A] a [E] lonesome [D] boatman [Bm] to ferry me [Em] over
My [A]
love [D] and [G] I
[D]
[G] My childhood days [A] bring back sad [D] reflections
[F#m] [Bm] Of happy [Em] times I spent [A] so long [D] ago
[G] [D] My [Em] boyhood friends [A] and my own [D] [F#m] relations
[Bm] Have all [Em] passed on now [A] like some melted [D] snow
[G] So [D] I'll spend [Bm] my days in [F#m] endless romance
Soft as [Bm] the grass, my [Em]
bed [D] is [A] free
[G] Odd to be home now [A] in Carrick, [D] Fergus
[Bm] On that [Em] long road down [A]
to [Bm] the sea
[G] [Em]
[Bm]
And [Em] in Kilkenny it is [Bm] reported
On [Em] marbled stone [F#] there, as black [Bm] as ink
With gold and [Em] silver I [A] would [D] support her
[Bm] But I have [G] seen no more [Bm]
[Em] now till I [A] get a [D] drink
[G]
For [D] I'm drunk [Bm] today, [E] sure I'm seldom [A]
sober
[F#m] A handsome [Bm]
rover from [Em] town [D] to town
[A] [Em] Ah, but I'm sick now [A] and my [F#m] days [D] are numbered
[Bm] Come [G] all ye [Em] young men [A] and lay [D] me down
[A] [D]
