An old video of Planxty. It's a song only available as Single, and on a compilation, as far as I know. Yarmouth Town.
Here are the chords the way I use to play it. If you use the app "songbook" from Linkesoft, I wrote about it some time ago, you just have to copy and paste.
You'll find lots more tabs for tunes and songs on this blog here:

Capo 2
{pause: 15}
In [D]Yarmouth Town there [G]lived a [D]man,
[G]kept a little [D]tavern down [A]by the strand
The [D]landlord had a [G]daughter [D]fair,
a [G]pretty little [D]thing with the [A]golden hair.
{soc}
Oh, [D]won’t you come down,
[G]won’t you come down,
[A]won’t you come down
to [G]Yar[A]mouth [D]town.
{eoc}
2. At [D]night there came a [Bm]sailor man
and he’s [G]asked the daughter [A]for her hand.
„Oh, [D]why should I marry [Bm]you, she said,
I [G]have all I [D]want with[A]out being wed.
{soc}
Oh, [D]won’t you come down,
[G]won’t you come down,
[A]won’t you come down
to [G]Yarmouth [D]town.
{eoc}
3. „But [D]{soh}if{eoh} with me you do [Bm]{soh}want{eoh} to linger,
I [G]tie a piece of string all ar[A]ound my finger
and [D]as you pass by, just [Bm]pull on the string
and [G]I’ll come [D]down and I’ll [A]let you in.“
{soc}
Oh, [D]won’t you come down,
[G]won’t you come down,
[A]won’t you come down
to [G]Yarmouth [D]town.
{eoc}
4. At [F#m]closing time the [Bm]sailor man
he’s [Em]gone to the tavern down [A]by the strand
and [F#m]as he passed by, he [Bm]pulled on the string,
and [G]she’s come [D]down, and she’s [A]let him in.
{soc}
Oh, [D]won’t you come down,
[G]won’t you come down,
[A]won’t you come down
to [G]Yarmouth [D]town.
{eoc}
5. Now [Bm]he’s never seen such a [Em]sight before,
‚cause the [G]string around the [D]finger was [A]all she wore.
{soc}
Oh, [D]won’t you come down,
[G]won’t you come down,
[A]won’t you come down
to [G]Yarmouth [D]town.
{eoc}
6. The [F#m]sailor stayed the [Bm]whole night through
and [Em]early in the morning went [A]back to his crew,
and then he [F#m]told them about the [Bm]maiden fair,
the [G]pretty little [D]thing with the [A]golden hair.
{soc}
Oh, [D]won’t you come down,
[G]won’t you come down,
[A]won’t you come down
to [G]Yarmouth [D]town.
{eoc}
7. Well, the [D]news it soon [Bm]got around
and the [G]very next night in [A]Yarmouth Town
there was [D]fifteen sailors [Bm]pulling on the string
and [G]she’s come [D]down and [A]she’s let them all in.
{soc}
Oh, [D]won’t you come down,
[G]won’t you come down,
[A]won’t you come down
to [G]Yarmouth [D]town.
{eoc}
8. So all young men that to Yarmouth go,
if you see a pretty girl with her hair hanging low,
well, all you’ve got to do is pull on the string,
and she’ll come down and she’ll let you in.
{soc}
Oh, [D]won’t you come down,
[G]won’t you come down,
[A]won’t you come down
to [G]Yarmouth [D]town.
