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.
