Fiddlers Green - Ver 2

G C G Em As I walked by the dockside one evening so rare G C G D To view the still waters and take the salt air C G I heard an old fisherman singing this song G C G D Oh take me away boys, my time is not long G D G Dress me up in my oilskins and jumper C G D No more on the docks I'll be seen C Just tell my old ship-mates G I'm taking a trip, mates D G G C G And I'll see you someday in Fiddler's Green G C G Em Oh Fiddler's Green is a place I've heard tell G C G D Where the fishermen go if they don't go to Hell C G Where the weather is fair and the dolphins do play G C G D And the cold coast of Greenland is far, far away G D G Dress me up in my oilskins and jumper C G D No more on the docks I'll be seen C Just tell my old ship-mates G I'm taking a trip, mates D G G C G And I'll see you someday in Fiddler's Green G C G Em Where the sky's always clear and there's never a gale G C G D Where the fish jump on board with a swish of their tail C G Where you lie at your leisure, there's no work to do G C G D And the skipper's below making tea for the crew G D G Dress me up in my oilskins and jumper C G D No more on the docks I'll be seen C Just tell my old ship-mates G I'm taking a trip, mates D G G C G And I'll see you someday in Fiddler's Green G C G Em When you get back in dock and the long trip is through G C G D There's pubs and there's clubs and there's lasses there too C G Where the girls are all pretty and the beer is all free G C G D And there's bottles of rum growing from every tree Chorus 4 G D G Dress me up in my oilskins and jumper C G D No more on the docks I'll be seen C Just tell my old ship-mates G I'm taking a trip, mates D G G C G And I'll see you someday in Fiddler's Green G C G Em Oh I don't want a harp nor a halo, not me G C G D Just give me a breeze and a good rolling sea C G And I'll play my old squeezebox as we sail along G C G D With the wind in the rigging to sing me the song Chorus 5 G D G Dress me up in my oilskins and jumper C G D No more on the docks I'll be seen C Just tell my old ship-mates G I'm taking a trip, mates D G G C G And I'll see you someday in Fiddler's Green
