C majorC
Oh I wish I was in limerick town
C majorC
Where the river winds past the ridges down
C majorC
And the little lanes lead to the gathering crowd
C majorC
In the light fall of the spring evening
C majorC
For among its streets a love I’ve found
C majorC
Oh, of a girl from a northern town
C majorC
And ill never see your streets no more

C majorC
So full of my sad thoughts of her

(Chorus)
C majorC
And if you ever go to limerick town
C majorC
Where the river winds past the ridges down
C majorC
Will you seek the good friends there I found
C majorC
And will you tell them I was asking
C majorC
For them
C majorC
Da-da-dee-da-da- da- daa-daa-down
C majorC
La da dee da da da- daa-daa-down
C majorC
La da dee da da da- daa-daa-down
C majorC
La da dee da da da- daa-daa-down

Verse 2
Oh watch the rain drift over raheen
Or the river head a deep mist
Oh dusk has fallen over you Georgian streets
for if ever we should chance to meet


Choras
And if you ever go to limerick town
Where the river winds past the ridges down
Will you seek the good friends there I found
And will you tell them I was asking
For them
