Em E
Sailed away from the old North Wall
Travelling feet gave me the call,
F#m
Leaving, a suitcase in my hand,
B
With the price of a pint, didn't need a bite.
E
There was good old craic on the boat that night.
D E
As we left our homes in Ireland.
[Chorus]
B
And the lights they flickered from the shore,
E
The boat was rocking to and fro,
A E B
Heading for the docks in Liverpool,
A
We sang and danced the night away,
E
The squeezebox, sang and the fiddle played,
A B E
Stepping off the boat in Liverpool.

E B E
Rise up at the craic of dawn,
B E
Working hard the whole week long,
A
At night time I'd play me old guitar,
E B
And we sang together one and all,

Side by side and standing tall,
A B E
The craic was good down in the Liffey bar
[Chorus]
B
And the lights they flickered from the shore,

The pub was rocking to and fro,
A E B
Down beside the docks of Liverpool,
A
We sang and danced the night away,
E
The squeezebox, sang and the fiddle played,
A B E
Stepping off at night in Liverpool.
