A Bm E A E F#m
I wish I was in Carrickfergus
Bm E A Asus4 A
Only for nights in Ballygrand
Bm E A E F#m
I would swim over the deepest ocean
Bm E A Asus4 A
Only for nights in Ballygrand
F#m E
But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over
F#m D E
And neither have I the wings to fly
Bm E A E F#m
I wish I had a handsome boatman
Bm E A Asus4 A
To ferry me over my love and I.
A Bm E A E F#m
My childhood days bring back sad 'flections
Bm E A Asus4 A
Of happy days so long ago
A Bm E A E F#m
My boyhood friends and my own relations
Bm E A Asus4 A
Have all passed away now like melting snow
F#m E
So I'll spend my days in endless roving
F#m D E
Soft is the grass and my bed is free
Bm E A E F#m
Ah to be home now in Carrickfergus
Bm E A Asus4 A
By the the long road down to the salty sea.
A Bm E A E F#m
Now in Kilkenny it is reported
Bm E A Asus4 A
On marble stones there as black as ink
A Bm E A E F#m
With gold and silver I would support her
Bm E A Asus4 A
But I'll say no more now till I’ve had a drink
F#m E
For I'm drunk today and I'm seldom sober
F#m D E
A handsome rover from town to town
Bm E A E F#m
Ah but I'm sick now and my days are numbered
Bm E A Asus4 A
So come all ye young men and lay me down.
