Carrickfergus Chords

(ver. 1)
Loreena Mckennitt
A        Bm  E       A       F#m
I wish I was in Carrighfergus
           Bm   E         A
Only for nights in Ballygrant
              Bm  E             A  F#m
I would swim over the deepest ocean
           Bm   E       A
Only for nights in Ballygrant

                F#m                  E
But the sea is wide, and I can't get over
              A  F#m         E
And neither have I wings to fly
               Bm    E            A     F#m
Or if I could find me a handsome boatsman
             Bm E                A
To ferry me over to my love and die

          Bm    E         A    F#m
Now in Kilkenny, it is reported
                 Bm        E             A
They've marble stones there as black as ink
                Bm  E             A       F#m
With gold and silver I would transport her
                  Bm      E               A
But I'll sing no more now, till I get a drink

            F#m                        E
I'm drunk today, but then I'm seldom sober
             A  F#m            E
A handsome rover from town to town
              Bm      E              A F#m
Ah, but I am sick now, my days are over
               Bm      E            A
Come all you young lads and lay me down

         Bm E           A   F#m
I wish I was in Carrighfergus
           Bm   E       A
Only for nights in Ballygran
