[Verse 1]
AmI wished I Dmhad you in CarGrick fAmergus
Only for niDmghts in the BG7ally grCand
AmI would swim Dmover the deGepest oAmcean
The deepest oDmcean to be Amby your sCide
[Chorus]
But the sGea is wCide, and I cDman't swim oGver
And neither hCave I wiDmngs to fGly
AmI wish I could fDmind me a haGndy boAmatman
To ferry me oDmver to my lGove and dCie
[Verse 2]
AmMy childhood dDmays bring back sGad refAmlections
Of happy dDmays, so lGong aCgo
AmMy boyhood frDmiends and my oGwn relAmations
Have all passed Dmon, like meAmlting snCow
[Chorus]
So, IG'll spend my dCays in enDmdless roGving
Soft is the grCass and my Dmbed is fGree
AmOh, to be hDmome now in CarGrick fAmergus
On the long road dDmownG to the salty sCea
[Verse 3]
AmAnd in KilDmkenny it Gis repAmorted
On marble sDmtone there as bGlack as Cink
With gAmold and siDmlverG I did suAmpport her
But I'll sing no mDmore now,G till I get a dCrink
[Chorus-Outro]
I'm drGunk toCday, and I'm rDmarely sGober
A handsome rCover from tDmown to tGown
Oh, Ambut I am sDmick nowG and my day's are nuAmmbered
Come all ye Dmmen,G and lay me dCown
