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

CHORUS
C chordC G chordG C chordC
Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumpers,
F chordF C chordC G chordG
no more on the docks I'll be seen.
F chordF C chordC
Just tell me old shipmates, I'm taking a trip, mates,
G chordG G7 chordG7 C chordC
and I'll see you some day on Fiddler's Green.

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

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

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

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

CHORUS
