[A] I wish I had someone to [D] love [A] me,
[D] Someone to [A] call me their [E] own,
[A] Someone to stay with me [D] al- A] ways,
I'm [D] weary of [E] being [A] alone.

[A] Meet me tonight in the [D] moon- [A] light,
[D] Meet me [A] tonight all [E] alone;
[A] I have a sad story to [D] tell [A] you,
I'll [D] tell by the [E] light of the [A] moon.

[A] I wish I had someone to [D] love [A] me,
[D] Someone to [A] call me their [E] own,
[A] Someone to stay with me [D] al- [A] ways,
I'm [D] weary of [E] being [A] alone.

[A] I'll be sent to the new jail [D] tomor- [A] row,
[D] Leavin' my [A] darlin' [E] alone,
[A] With the cold iron bars all [D] around [A] me,
And [D] my head on a [E] pillow of [A] stone.

[A] I wish I had someone to [D] love [A] me,
[D] Someone to [A] call me their [E] own,
[A] Someone to stay with me [D] al- [A] ways,
I'm [D] weary of [E] being [A] alone.

[A] Tonight is our last night [D] toget- [A] her,
The [D] nearest and [A] dearest must [E] part,
[A] For all that has bound us [D] toget- [A] her,
Is [D] quickly being [E] torn [A] apart.

[A] I wish I had someone to [D] love [A] me,
[D] Someone to [A] call me their [E] own,
[A] Someone to stay with me [D] al- [A] ways,
I'm [D] weary of [E] being [A] alone.

[A] I have a large ship on the [D] o- [A] cean,
All [D] laden with [A] silver and [E] gold,
[A] And before my poor darlin' will [D] suf- [A] fer,
That [D] ship will be [E] anchored and [A] sold.

[A] I wish I had someone to [D] love [A] me,
[D] Someone to [A] call me their [E] own,
[A] Someone to stay with me [D] al- [A] ways,
I'm [D] weary of [E] being [A] alone.

[A] I wish I had wings of a [D] spar- [A] row,
For [D] those prison [A] walls I must [E] flee;
[A] I'd fly to the arms of my [D] true [A] love,
And [D] bring her home [E] safety to [A] me.

[A] I wish I had someone to [D] love [A] me,
[D] Someone to [A] call me their [E] own,
[A] Someone to stay with me [D] al- [A] ways,
I'm [D] weary of [E] being [A] alone.

[A] I'm [E] weary of being [A] alone.

A lovely auld song, I tried to record it
many times after learning it from the
singing of Joe Heaney. I heard it on a
tape he made for Lynn Doherty in Maruba
New South Wales. Sometimes I love to sing
this but not always. Most songs I can put
out almost at will but this one needs a lonely
air around it. It won't exist in my old
athmosphere but maybe needs the ears
of those who know the feeling of loneliness
I Wish I Had Someone To Love Me-Notes by Christy
Moore, from the box set album C.D.
