[G] [C] [F] [C] [G] [C]
When I was young and in my prime [F] and could wander [C] wild and free
There was [G] always a longing [C] in my mind to follow the call [G] of the sea
[C] So I'll sing farewell to Carlingford and farewell to Greenor
[G]
[C] And I'll think of you [F] both day [C] and night until [F] I return [G] once more
[C] Till I [G] return [C] once more
On all of the stormy seven seas [F] I have sailed before [C] the mast
And on [G] every [C] voyage I [Am] ever made [C] I swore it would be [G] my last
[C] So I'll sing farewell to Carlingford and farewell to [G] Greenor
[C] And I'll think of you [F] both day [C] and night until [F] I return [G] once more
Till [F] [Em] I return [C] once more
Now I had a girl called Mary Boyle and [F] she lived [C] in Greenor
And the [G] foremost thought [C] that was in her mind was to keep me [G] safe on shore
[C] So I'll sing farewell to Carlingford and farewell to [G] Greenor
[C] And I'll think of you both day and night until I [G] return once more
[C] Till [G] I return [C] once more
Now the [F] landsman's life [C] is all his [F] own he can go or [C] he can stay
But [G] when the sea [Am] gets in your blood [C] when she calls you [G] must obey
So [C] I'll sing farewell [G] [C] to Carlingford and farewell to [G] Greenor
[C] And I'll think of you both day and night until I [G] return once more
Until [C] I return once more
So I'll sing farewell to Carlingford and farewell to Greenor
[G] [C] And I'll think of you both day and night until [F] I return [G] once [Em] more
[F] Until [Em] I return [C] once more
