_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ I wish I [Em] _ _ _ [G] was _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ in _ [Dm] Carrick, _ [D] Fergus, _ _
[A] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
Only [G] for _ nights, _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
nights in _ [G] Ballygraf,
[D] _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] I _ would swim [Em] _ _ over _ _ the [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] deepest _ [D] ocean, _
_ [F#m] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
The _ deepest [Em] ocean _ _ _ [A] for _ _ _ _ my [D] love to find, _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ But the sea is _ wide, _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] and I _ can't swim _ _ over, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Neither _ [Bm] _ _ _ have _ _ _ _ _ [G] I wings to [A] _ fly, _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ If I could [G] find _ me, _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
The handsome [D] _ boatman _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ to ferry me [Em] over, _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ [A] _ _ Over to my love [D] and I.
_ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ My childhood _ [Em] _ _ days, _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ bring back [D] sad reflections, _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
[B] Of happy _ [Em] times, _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ spent so long [D] ago,
_ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ My [D] _ _ _
_ boyhood [Em] friends, _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ and my own [D] _ relations, _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ Have all passed on [Em] now, [G] _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ like the melting [G] snow, _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ But I'll spend my _ _ _ _ _ _ days, _ _ _ _ in _ endless [A] _ roaming, _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Soft as [Bm] the _ _ grass, _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] my _ bed [A] is _ _ free, _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Ah, to be [Em] back _ [G] now, _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
in [D] Carrick, _ Fergus, _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
[B] On that [G] long _ road, _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] down to the [D] salty sea,
_ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ And in _ [Em] _ Kilkenny, _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ there it is [G] _ _ [F#m] reported, _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [B] There are marble _ [Em] stones there, _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ as black as any [D] ink,
_ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ With gold and [Em] _ silver, _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ I would [D] support her, _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] But I'll sing no more [G] now, _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ till [G] I get a [D] drink,
_ _ [G] _ _ _
[D] For _ _ [A] I am [D] drunk _ today, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ and I'm still [A] not _ sober, _ _ _
_ _ _ _ A _ _ handsome [Bm] rover, _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ [Em] from town to [A] _ _ town, _
Oh, _ _ _ _ but I'm [G] sick now, _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ and my days [D] are numbered, _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
So come [Em] ye young men, _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [C]
and lay [D] me down. _ _ _ _
