Key: G major
Verse 1
one evening so fair,
To view the still waters
and take the salt air,
I heard an old fisherman singing his song,
D
G
Oh, take me away, boys,
C
G
Am
No more on the docks I'll be seeing
G
C
G
Just tell me, old shipmates,
I'm taking a trip, mate
I'll see you someday
D
G
on Fiddler's Green
Now Fiddler's Green is
a place I hear tell
Where the sailor men go
if they don't go to hell
Where the weather is fair
and the dolphins do play
D
G
And the cold coast of Greenland
C
G
Am
No more on the docks I'll be seen.
G
C
G
Just tell me, old shipmates,
I'm taking our tripmates.
D
G
I'll see us someday on
D
G
Fiddler's Green,
where the sky is always clear
and there's never a gale.
And the fish jump on board,
with a swish of their tail.
Where you lie at your leisure,
there's no work to do.
C
G
And the skippers billow,
C
G
Am
No more on the docks I'll be seen.
G
C
G
Just tell me, old shipmates,
I'm taking a drip, mates.
C
G
I'll see you someday on
D
G
Fiddler's Green.
And when you're at dock,
and your long trip is through,
Or there's pubs, and there's clubs,
and there's lassies there too,
Where the girls are all pretty,
and the beer is all free,
Wrap me up in the oilskins and jumpers
C
G
Am
No more on the docks I'll be seen
G
C
G
Just tell me old shipmates
I'm takin' a trip,
D
G
I'll see ya someday on Fiddler's Green
Now I don't want a harp nor a halo,
not me
C
G
Just give me a breeze and
a good rollin' sea
as we sail along
With the wind in the rigging
C
G
Just tell me old shipmates
I'm taking a trip mates
G
D
I'll see you someday on Fiddler's Green.
