Fiddler Of Dooney Chords

(ver. 1)
Gordon Bok
[Intro]
G   A   G
G   A   G   A
C   Am   C   Am
C  G  C  Em  Am  E  A

[Verse]
       G                    A
When I play on my fiddle in Dooney
     G
Folk dance like a wave on the sea
                          A
My cousin is priest in Kilvarnet
   G                   A
My brother in Moharabuiee

[Verse]
                G           Am
Oh, I passed my brother and cousin
                   G        Am
They read in their books of prayer
        C    G          C       Em
Ah, but I, I read in my book of songs
        Am            E     Am     A
Which I bought at the Sligo fair

[Verse]
        G                      A
When we come to the end of our time
         G
To Saint Peter, all sitting in state
                               A
He will smile on the three old spirits
    G                         A
But pass me first through the gate

[Verse]
                 G          Am
For the good are always the merry
           G    Am
Save by an evil chance
        C     G        C       Em
And the merry love the fiddle, aye
        Am    E       Am      A
And the merry love to dance

[Verse]
    G                          A
Oh, when all the folk up there spy me
          G
They will all come and gather round me
                                A
Saying, "Here is the fiddler of Dooney!"
        G                        A
They'll dance like a wave on the sea

[Instrumental]
C   Am   C   Am
C  G  C  Em  Am  E  A
C   Am   C   Am
C  G  C  Em  Am  E  A

[Verse]
                 G          Am
For the good are always the merry
           G    Am
Save by an evil chance
        C     G        C       Em
And the merry love the fiddle, aye
        Am    E       Am      A
And the merry love to dance

[Verse]
    G                          A
Oh, when all the folk up there spy me
          G
They will all come and gather round me
                                A
Saying, "Here is the fiddler of Dooney!"
        G                        A
They'll dance like a wave on the sea
        G                        A
They'll dance like a wave on the sea
