*REPEAT CHORUS ATER EVERY VERSE*
*CAPO 2*
[Verse 1]
G Em G As i walked by the dockside one evening so fair,-- To view the salt Am D7 C G water and take the sea air, --- I heard an old fisherman singing a Bm Am C D7 song, ---- won't you take me away boys my time is not long.---
[Chorus]
G D G C G Wrap me up in my oil-skin and jumper,---- No more on the docks ill be D C G Bm seen.----- Just tell me oul' ship-mates i'm taking a trip mates , Am D7 G and i'll see you some day in Fidlers--Green.----
[Verse 2]
G Em Now Fiddlers Green is a place I heard tell, G Am D7 Where the fishermen go if they don't go to hell, C G Bm Where the skies are all clear and the dolphins do play Am C D7 And the cold coast of Greenland is far,far away.
[Chorus]
G D G C G Wrap me up in my oil-skin and jumper,---- No more on the docks ill be D C G Bm seen.----- Just tell me oul' ship-mates i'm taking a trip mates , Am D7 G and i'll see you some day in Fidlers--Green.----
[Verse 3]
G Em When you get off the docks and the long trip is through, G Am D7 There's pub's, there's clubs and there's lassies there too, C G Bm Where the girls are all pretty and the beer there is free Am C D7 And there's bottles of rum growing from every tree.
[Chorus]
G D G C G Wrap me up in my oil-skin and jumper,---- No more on the docks ill be D C G Bm seen.----- Just tell me oul' ship-mates i'm taking a trip mates , Am D7 G and i'll see you some day in Fidlers--Green.----
[Verse 4]
G Em Now, I don't want a harp nor a halo, not me, G Am D7 Just give me a breeze and a good rolling sea. C G Bm I'll play me old squeeze-box as we sail along. Am C D7 With the wind in the rigging to sing me along.
[Chorus]
G D G C G Wrap me up in my oil-skin and jumper,---- No more on the docks ill be D C G Bm seen.----- Just tell me oul' ship-mates i'm taking a trip mates , Am D7 G and i'll see you some day in Fidlers--Green.----
(SLOW)
C G Bm Just tell me oul' ship-mates i'm taking a trip mates , Am D7 G and i'll see you some day in Fidlers--Green.----
