Carrickfergus
G Am D G Em
I wish I was in Carrick-fergus,
Am D C G
only for nights in Bally- gran
Am D G Em
I would swim over the deepest ocean,
Am D C G
The deepest ocean to be by your side
G Em D
But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over
G Em C D
And neither have I the wings to fly
Am D G Em
I wish I could find me a handsome boat man
Am D G
To ferry me over, to my love and die.
G Am D G Em
But in Kil-kenny, it is re-ported,
Am D C G
On marble stones there as black as ink
Am D G Em
With gold and silver I would sup-port her,
Am D G C G
But I'll sing no more now, 'till I get a drink.
