Fiddlers Green chords by The Dubliners

Capo 5th fret.

     C       F      C     Am
  As I walked by the dockside one evening so fair,
     C      F     C       G
  to view the salt waters and take the salt air,
     F           C
  I heard an old fisherman singing a song,
         G      C      G
  'Oh take me away boys, me time is not long'.

CHORUS
    C     G      C
Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumpers,
  F      C       G
no more on the docks I'll be seen.
   F              C
Just tell me old shipmates, I'm taking a trip, mates,
   G            G7     C
and I'll see you some day on Fiddler's Green.

    C     F     C        Am
  Now Fiddler's Green is a place I've heard tell,
        C     F     C      G
  where the fishermen go if they don't go to hell.
        F              C
  Where the skies are all clear and the dolphins do play,
               G       C  G
  and the cold coast of Greenland is far, far away.

CHORUS
        C      F         C   Am
  Where the skies are all clear and there's never a gale,
       C      F       C       G
  and the fish jump on board with one swish of their tail.
        F              C
  Where you lie at your leisure, there's no work to do,
             G     C      G
  and the skipper's below making tea for the crew.

CHORUS
       C      F       C       Am
  When you get back on docks and the long trip is through,
      C          F         C       G
  there's pubs and there's clubs and there's lassies there, too.
        F               C
  Where the girls are all pretty and the beer it is free,
              G      C     G
  and there's bottles of rum growing from every tree.

CHORUS
      C      F     C     Am
  Now I don't want a harp nor a halo, not me,
     C      F     C      G
  just give me a breeze on a good rolling sea.
     F             C
  I'll play me old squeezebox as we sail along,
            G      C     G
  with the wind in the rigging to sing me a song.

CHORUS
