[Verse 1]
As GI walked by the dockside one evening so Emfair
To view the salt water and take the sea AmairAm7  D7  
I Cheard an old fGisherman Bmsinging a song
Won't you Amtake me away boys my Ctime is not D7long
[Chorus]
Wrap me Gup in me Doilskins and Gjumper
no Cmore on the Gdocks I'll be Dseen
Just Ctell me old ship mates I'm Gtaking a Bmtrip mates
And AmI'll see you D7someday in Fiddlers GGreen
[Verse 2]
Now GFiddlers Green is a place I hear Emtell
Where fishermen go if they don't go to AmhellAm7  D7  
Where the Cskies are all Gclear and the Bmdolphins do play
And the Amcold coast of Greenland is Cfar, far aD7way
[Chorus]
Wrap me Gup in me Doilskins and Gjumper
no Cmore on the Gdocks I'll be Dseen
Just Ctell me old ship mates I'm Gtaking a Bmtrip mates
And AmI'll see you D7someday in Fiddlers GGreen
[Verse 3]
When you Gget to the docks and the long trip is Emthru
There's pub and there's clubs and there's lassies there AmtooAm7  D7  
Where the Cgirls are all Gpretty and Bmbeer it is free
And there's Ambottles of rum growing Cfrom every D7tree
[Chorus]
Wrap me Gup in me Doilskins and Gjumper
no Cmore on the Gdocks I'll be Dseen
Just Ctell me old ship mates I'm Gtaking a Bmtrip mates
And AmI'll see you D7someday in Fiddlers GGreen
[Verse 4]
Now I Gdon't want a harp or a halo, not Emme
Just give me a breeze and a good rolling AmseaAm7  D7  
I'll Cplay me old Gsqueeze box as Bmwe sail along
With the Amwind in the rigging to Csing us a D7song
[Chorus]
Wrap me Gup in me Doilskins and Gjumper
no Cmore on the Gdocks I'll be Dseen
Just Ctell me old ship mates I'm Gtaking a Bmtrip mates
And AmI'll see you D7someday in Fiddlers GGreen
