[VERSE 1]
F C Am
As I walked down the dockside one evening so fair
C F C G
To view the still waters and to take the salt air
F C
I heard an old fisherman singing a song
G C G
He said, "Take me away lads, me time is not long"
[CHORUS]
C G C
Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumper
F C G
No more on the docks I'll be seen
F C
Just tell me old shipmates, I'm taking a trip mates
G C G C
And I'll see you one day in Fiddler's Green
[VERSE 2]
F C Am
Now, Fiddler's Green is a place I've heard tell
C F C G
Where fishermen go if they don't go to hell
F C
Where the weather is fair and the dolphins do play
G C G
And the cold coasts of Greenland are far, far away
[CHORUS]
C G C
Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumper
F C G
No more on the docks I'll be seen
F C
Just tell me old shipmates, I'm taking a trip mates
G C
And I'll see you one day in Fiddler's Green
[VERSE 3]
F C Am
Oh, the weather is fair and there's never a gale
C F C G
And the fish jump aboard with one swish of their tail
F C
You can lie in your hammock, there's no work to do
G C G
And the skipper's below making tea for the crew
[CHORUS]
C G C
Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumper
F C G
No more on the docks I'll be seen
F C
Just tell me old shipmates, I'm taking a trip mates
G C G C
And I'll see you one day in Fiddler's Green
[VERSE 4]
F C Am
Oh, I don't need a harp nor a halo, not me
C F C G
Just give me a breeze and a good rolling sea
F C
And I'll play this old squeezebox as we sail along
G C G
With the wind in the rigging to sing me a song
[CHORUS]
C G C
Wrap me up in me oilskins and jumper
F C G
No more on the docks I'll be seen
F C
Just tell me old shipmates, I'm taking a trip mates
G C G C
And I'll see you one day in Fiddler's Green
