Carrickfergus
guitar tabs lyrics
(Traditional Arranged by Bryan Ferry)
Intro: D Gadd9 D Bm7 D Gadd9 D // Gadd9==Dsus4/G
Bm7 A D Gadd9 D
I wish I was in Carrickfergus
G A G G/B D Dsus4 D
Only for nights in Ballygrand
I would swim over the deepest ocean
Just to see my love before I die
(NC) D Bm A D/A A
But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over
D Bm A
Nor have I wings so I could fly
D Gadd9 D
I wish I could meet a handsome boatman
G A G G/B D Dsus4 D
To carry me over my love and I
In Kilkenny it is reported
On marble stones as black as ink
With gold and silver I did support her
But I'll sing no more till I've had a drink
Well I'm drunk today and I'm seldom sober
A handsome rover from town to town
But I am sick now my days are numbered
Come all you young men and lay me down
Come all you young men and lay me down
D Dsus4 ...
