[Intro 1]
[G][Gsus4][G][Gsus4][G]

[Verse 1]
I [G]wish I [Am]was
[D]in Carrickfergus[G][Em]
Only for [Am]nights [D]in [G]Bal[Gsus4]lygrand[G]
I would swim [Am]over[D]
the deepest [G]ocean[Em]
Only for [Am]nights [D]in[G]
[Gsus4]Ballygran[G]d
But the [D]sea is [G]wide [Em]and I
cannot [D]swim [Am]over[D]
And neither [G]have [Em]I
the [Am]wings to [D]fly[Am][D]
I wish I [Am]had a[D] handsome
[G]boatman[Em]
To ferry me [Am]over,
[D]my love and I[G]

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 2]
Now [G]in [Am]Kilkenny [D]it is repor[G]ted[Em]
On marble [Am]stone [D]there as
black as [G]ink[Gsus4][G]
With gold [Am]an d silver,
[D]I would suppor[G]t her[Em]
But I'll sing no [Am]more now,
[D]'til I get a drink
[G]'Ca[Gsus4]use I'm d[G]runk to[D]day[G]
[Em]and I'm seldom sober[D][Am]
[D]A handsome rov[G]er[Em]
from [Am]town to [D]town[Am][D]
Ah but I'm [Am]sick now,
[D]my days are num[G]bered[Em]
Come [Am]all you young men
[D]and lay[G] me [D]dow[G]n
[C][G]
