I could send you chords and text together as well. Of course the real chords depend on whether you have the same recording but I think these are the most common ones. HTML line breaks and preformat commands added. --JoeClone, 24-Aug-02. |

05 Dec 00 - 12:43 PM (#351782) Subject: Chords Add: CARRICKFERGUS From: GUEST,Ed Brendy, we have a different version; I'm not sure of its source:
(D)I wish I (C)was (Am)in Carrick(G)fergus(Em)
But the sea is (G)wide, and I (D)cannot swim over,
I wish I (C)could meet (Am)with a handsome (G)boatman,(Em) You're right on with Black & Tans! We just go to D instead of the Bm |

05 Dec 00 - 09:00 PM (#352101) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Carrickfergus/Come out ye Bla From: Brendy Ed,. what key are you starting the song off in?. I honestly can't see the 'D' & 'C'(let alone play it) at the start. What tune have you got for it? I would normally do it like this(A)I wish I (Bm)was (E)in Carrick(A)fergus(F#m) Only for (Bm7)nights (E/G#)in Bally(A)gran. B. |
06 Dec 00 - 08:41 AM (#352294) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: Carrickfergus/Come out ye Bla From: UB Ed Brendy, I guess the key would be C. The D is used as a reference, generally lightly strummed once, to give the vocalist a spot. Additionally, playing the B on the way from C to Am as well as the F# between the G and Em adds a bit. I have heard other versions and sense ours maybe a bit Americanized...We do like it though. And yes, I've finally joined the forum. |
