[Db]
I wish [Ebm] I was
[Ab] in
[Db] Carrickfergus
[Bbm] Only [Ebm] for nights
[Ab] in [Db] Ballygrens
I would [Ebm] swim over [Ab] the deepest [Db] ocean
[Bbm] The [Ebm] deepest ocean
[Gb] my [Db] love to find
But the [Bb] sea [Db] is wide
[Bbm] And I can't [Ab] swim over
And [Db] neither [Bbm] have I
The [Gb] wings [Ab] to fly
[Ebm]
[Ab] I wish [Ebm] I had me
[Ab] A [Db] handy boatman
[Bbm] To ferry [Ebm] me over
To
[Ab] my [Db] love and die
My [Ebm] childhood day
[Ab] Bring back sad [Db] reflection
Of [Bbm]
[Ebm] happy time
[Ab] oh so [Db] long ago
My [Ebm] boyhood friend
And
[Ab] my old [Db] relation
[Bbm] Have all [Ebm] passed on now
[Gb] Like the [Db] melting snow
So [Ab] I spend [Db] my days
[Bbm] In [Ab] endless roving
Soft [Db] is the [Bbm] grass
And [Gb] my bed [Ab] is free
[Ebm]
[Ab] But oh [Ebm] to be home now
[Ab] In
[Db] Carrickfergus
[Bbm] On [Ebm] that old road
[Ab] Running down [Db] to the sea
Now in [Ebm] Kilkenny
[Ab] Love is [Db] recorded
[Bbm] On [Ebm] darkest marble
As [Ab] black [Db] as ink
With gold [Ebm] and silver
I [Ab]
[Db] did support her
[Bbm] Oh but I'll [Ebm] sing no more now
[Ab] Until I [Db] get a drink
For I'm drunk today
[Bbm] And I'm [Ab] seldom sober
[Ab] I'm [Db] some [Bbm] rover
[Gb] From town [Ab] to town
[Ebm]
[Ab] Oh but [Ebm] I'm sick now
[Ebm]
[Ab] My days [Db] are numbered
[Bbm] Come [Ebm] all you young men
[Ab] And [Db] lay me down
[Bbm] Oh come [Ebm] all you young men
[Ab] And lay [Db] me down
[Bbm] Oh come all [Ebm] you young men
[Ab] And [Db] lay me down
Down
