Dubliners - I Wish I Had Someone To Love Me Chords & Tabs

  This is the version the Dubliners did live with Emelda May
  on her christmas special. Different lyrics than the old standard,
  and don't forget to put a CAPO on the 5th FRET to play along.
  You can find it on YT
  Super simple song, but a great sing-a-long at the lock in

   Though it's our last night together,    Nearest and dearest to part
         A                    D    A           D          E           A
   The love that has held us together,   Is shredded and torn on the path

   I wish I had ships on the ocean,   I'd lace them with silver and gold
        A                       D    A        D              E            A
   And sail to the banks of my true love,  A lass of just nineteen years old

       A                    D   A        A                      E
   I wish I had someone to love me,   Someone to call me their own
      A                     D   A             D         E       A

      A                     D   A       A                  E
   I wish I had wings of a swallow,   Flying out over the sea
        A                     D    A            D               E       A
