[E] [B]
When I [E] was young [B] and in my prime, and [E] could wander [B] wild and free,
There was [E] always a [B] longing in my mind [G#m] to follow the call [B] of the sea.
[E] So I'll sing farewell to [B]
Carlingford, and farewell to [C#]
Greenhorne,
[G#m] And I'll think of you both [E] day and night, until I return once [F#] more.
Until [G#m] I return [B] once more.
On all [E] of the [B] stormy seven seas [E] I have sailed before [B] the mast,
And on [E] every [B] voyage I ever made, I swore it would be my last.

farewell [B] to Carlingford, and farewell [C#] to [B] Greenhorne,

Until [E] I [F#] return [B] once more.
Now I had [E] a girl [B] called Mary Doyle, [E] and she lived in [B] Greenhorne,
And the foremost [E] thought was in her mind was to keep me safe on shore.

And [B] I'll think of you both day and night, [E] until I [B] return once [F#] more.
[E] Until I [B] return once more.
Now the [E] landsman's life [B] is all his own, he can [E] go or he [B] can stay,
But when [E] the sea [B] gets in your blood, [G#m] when she falls you [B] must obey.
So I'll sing [E] farewell [B] to Carlingford, and farewell to [F#]
Greenhorne,
[B] And I'll think [G#m] of you both [B] day and night, [E] until I [B]
return once [F#] more.
[E] Until I [B] return once more.
