I Wish I Had Someone To Love Me chords by The Dubliners

This is the version the Dubliners did live with Emelda May
 on her christmas special. Different lyrics than the old standard,
 and don't forget to put a CAPO on the 5th FRET to play along.
 You can find it on YT
 Super simple song, but a great sing-a-long at the lock in

I WISH I HAD SOMEONE TO LOVE ME
            CAPO 5th FRET FOR TRACK

A        D  A     A           E
  I wish I had someone to love me,   Someone to call me their own
   A           D  A     D     E    A
  Someone to sleep with me nightly,  I'm weary of sleeping alone

A           D   A    A          E
  Meet me tonight in the moonlight,  Meet me tonight all alone
   A          D  A       D     E    A
  I have a sad story to tell you,  I'm telling it under the moon

A          D  A     A           E
  I wish I had someone to love me,   Someone to call me their own
   A           D  A      D     E    A
  Someone to sleep with me nightly,  I'm weary of sleeping alone

A            D  A     A          E
  Though it's our last night together,  Nearest and dearest to part
     A          D  A      D     E      A
  The love that has held us together,  Is shredded and torn on the path

A           D  A     A           E
  I wish I had someone to love me,   Someone to call me their own
   A           D  A      D     E    A
  Someone to sleep with me nightly,  I'm weary of sleeping alone

A           D  A     A             E
  I wish I had ships on the ocean,  I'd lace them with silver and gold
    A            D  A    D       E      A
  And sail to the banks of my true love, A lass of just nineteen years old

A          D  A    A           E
  I wish I had someone to love me,  Someone to call me their own
   A           D  A       D     E    A
  Someone to sleep with me nightly,  I'm weary of sleeping alone

A           D  A    A         E
  I wish I had wings of a swallow,  Flying out over the sea
    A           D  A      D        E    A
  I'd fly to the arms of my true love,  And bring her home safely to me

A           D  A    A           E
  I wish I had someone to love me,  Someone to call me their own
   A           D  A      D     E    A
  Someone to sleep with me nightly,  I'm weary of sleeping alone
     D     E    A
  I'm weary of sleeping alone
