I [F]heard an old fisherman [Cadd9]singing this song: O-h [C]take me a[G7]way boys, me [C]time is not [G]long. {soc} Dress me [C]up in me [G7]oilskins and [C]jumper, no [F]more on the [C]docks I'll be [G]seen. Just [F]tell me old ship-mates, I'm [C]taking a [Em]trip, mates, and [G]I'll see you someday in [G7]Fiddler's [C]Green. {eoc} Now [C]Fiddler's [F]Green is a [C]place I've heard [Am]tell, where [C]fishermen [F]go if they [C]don't go to [G]hell. Where the [F]weather is fair and the [Cadd9]dolphins do play, and the [C]cold coast of [G7]Greenland is [C]far, far [G]away. {soc} Dress me [C]up in me [G7]oilskins and [C]jumper, no [F]more on the [C]docks I'll be [G]seen. Just [F]tell me old ship-mates, I'm [C]taking a [Em]trip, mates, and [G]I'll see you someday in [G7]Fiddler's [C]Green. {eoc} Now the [C]sky's always [F]clear and there's [C]never a [Am]gale, and [C]fish jump on [F]board with a [C]flip of their [G]tail. You can [F]lie at your leisure, there's [Cadd9]no work to do, and the [C]skipper's be[G7]low, making [C]tea for the [G]crew. {soc} Dress me [C]up in me [G7]oilskins and [C]jumper, no [F]more on the [C]docks I'll be [G]seen. Just [F]tell me old ship-mates, I'm [C]taking a [Em]trip, mates, and [G]I'll see you someday in [G7]Fiddler's [C]Green. {eoc} And [C]when you're in [F]dock and the [C]long trip is [Am]through, there’s [C]pubs and there's [F]clubs and there's [C]lassies there, [G]too. Now the [F]girls are all pretty and the [Cadd9]beer is all free, and there’s [C]bottles of [G7]rum growing [C]on every [G]tree. {soc} Dress me [C]up in me [G7]oilskins and [C]jumper, no [F]more on the [C]docks I'll be [G]seen. Just [F]tell me old ship-mates, I'm [C]taking a [Em]trip, mates, and [G]I'll see you someday in [G7]Fiddler's [C]Green. {eoc} But I [C]don't want a [F]harp nor a [C]halo, not [Am]me. Just [C]give me a [F]breeze and a [C]good rolling [G]sea. And I’ll [F]play me old squeezebox as [Cadd9]we sail along, with the [C]wind in the [G7]rigging to [C]sing me a [G]song. {soc} Dress me [C]up in me [G7]oilskins and [C]jumper, no [F]more on the [C]docks I'll be [G]seen. Just [F]tell me old ship-mates, I'm [C]taking a [Em]trip, mates, and [G]I'll see you someday in [G7]Fiddler's [C]Green. {eoc} Just [F]tell me old ship-mates, I'm [C]taking a [Em]trip, mates, and [G]I'll see you someday in [G7]Fiddler's [C]Green. {np} {c: verse} {start_of_tab} A|-----|-------|-------|-------|---------------| E|-----|-----0-|-1-0---|-----0-|------------| C|-----|-0-2---|-----2-|-0-2---|----------------| G|-0-0-|-------|-------|-------|-2---------------| {end_of_tab} {start_of_tab} A|---|-------|-----0-|-------|---------------| E|---|-----0-|-1-3---|-3-1-0-|--------------------| C|---|-0-2---|-------|-------|-2---------------| G|-0-|-------|-------|-------|---------------| {end_of_tab} {start_of_tab} A|---|-----0-|-------|-------|---------------| E|-0-|-1-3---|-3-1-0-|---0-1-|-3--------------| C|---|-------|-------|-2-----|---------------| G|---|-------|-------|-------|--------------| {end_of_tab} {start_of_tab} A|-----|-------|-------|-------|------------| E|-3-1-|-0---0-|-1-----|-------|-----------------| C|-----|---2---|---2-0-|-0---0-|-2----------------| G|-----|-------|-------|---4---|-------------| {end_of_tab} {c: chorus:} {start_of_tab} A|-----|-------|-------|--------------| E|-3-1-|-0-1-3-|-1-----|----------------| C|-----|-------|---2---|-2-0--------------| G|-----|-------|-----4-|-------------------| {end_of_tab} {start_of_tab} A|---|-0---0-|-------|--| E|-3-|---1---|-3-0---|----------| C|---|-------|-----0-|-2---| G|---|-------|-------|----------| {end_of_tab} {start_of_tab} A|---|-----0-|-0-----|-------|----------------| E|-0-|-1-3---|---3-1-|-0-1-3-|-3-1--------------------| C|---|-------|-------|-------|--------------| G|---|-------|-------|-------|--------------| {end_of_tab} {start_of_tab} A|---|-------|-------|-------|--------------| E|-0-|---0-1-|-3-1-0-|---0---|---------------------| C|---|-2-----|-------|-2---2-|-0----------------| G|---|-------|-------|-------|--------------| {end_of_tab}
