Verse 1
(G major) (C major) (D major) (E minor) As (G major) (D major) I roved
(G major) by the dockside
one (D major) evening (G major) so fair
(E minor) To (D major) view the (G major) still waters
and take (D major) the salt air
I heard (G major) an (C major) old fisherman (G major) singing this song
Oh, (D major) take me away boys,
my time is not long
Dress me (G major) up in my (D major) oil skins and jumper
(G major) No more (C major) on the (G major) docks (D major) I'll be seen
Just tell (C major) me all shipmates
(G major) I'm taking their tripmates
And (D major) I'll see you someday
(G major) on (D major) Fiddler's (G major) Green
Now Fiddler's Green
is a (D major) place (E minor) I've heard tell
Where (D major) the (G major) fishermen go
if they don't (D major) go to hell
Where the weather (C major) is fair
(G major) and the dolphins do play
(D major) And the cold coast (G major) of Greenland (D major)
is (E minor) far, far away
(D major) Dress me up in (G major) my oil (D major) skins and jumper
No (G major) more (C major) on the (G major) docks I'll be (D major) seen
Just tell me, (C major) old ship (G major) mates,
I'm taking (C major) the trip, (D major) mates
And I'll see you some (G major) day
on (D major) Fiddler's Green
(G major) The sky's always clear
and (D major) there's never (E minor) a gale
And the (G major) fish jump on board
with a swish of their (D major) tail
You can lie (C major) at your leisure,
(G major) there's nowhere to do
(D major) An d the skipper's below
making tea (E minor) for the (D major) crew
Dress me (G major) up in the oil (D major) skins and jumper
(G major) No (C major) more on the (G major) docks, (D major) I'll be seen
Just tell (C major) me, old shipmates,
(G major) I'm taking the trip, (E minor) mates
And (D major) I'll see you someday
(G major) on (D major) Fiddler's Green (G major)
Now (D major) when you're (G major) in Dork
(D major) and the long trip (G major) is (E minor) through
There's (D major) pubs (G major) and there's clubs
and there's lassies (D major) there too
Where the (G major) girls (C major) are all pretty
and (G major) the beer, it flows free
An (D major) d there's (G major) bottles of (D major) rum
growing from (E minor) every (D major) tree
Dress me up (G major) in my (D major) oil skins and jumper
(G major) No (C major) more on the (G major) docks (D major) I'll be seen
Just (G major) tell me, (C major) old shipmates,
(G major) I'm taking a trip,
(E minor) And (D major) I'll see you Sunday
(G major) on (D major) Fiddler's (G major) Green
Now I (D major) don't (G major) want a harp,
(C major) nor a (D major) halo, (G major) nor a (E minor) key
Just (D major) give me (G major) a breeze
and a good rolling (D major) sea
I'll play (C major) me off squeeze (G major) -boxes
we sell along
With (D major) the wind in the rigging
to sing (E minor) me this (D major) song
Dress me up in me oil skins and jumper
No (G major) more on the dopes, (D major) I'll be seen
Just tell (C major) me, old shipmates,
(G major) I'm taking the trip, mate
(D major) And I'll see you someday
(G major) on (D major) Fiddler's Green
Dress me (G major) up in (D major) the oil skins and jumper
No (G major) more (C major) on (G major) the dopes
I'll (D major) be seen
Just tell (C major) me old shipmates
(G major) I'm taking the trip (E minor) mates
(D major) And I'll see you some (G major) day
on (D major) Fiddler's Green
