Cockles and Mussles

D A⁷

In Dublin's fair city where the girls are so pretty
D A

I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone
D

As she wheeled her wheelbarrow
A⁷

Through the streets broad and narrow
D G D G D A⁷ D

Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"

D A⁷

Alive, alive, oh! Alive, alive, oh!
D G D G D A⁷ D

Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"

D A⁷

She was a fishmonger and sure, t'was no wonder
D A

For so were her mother and father before
D

And they wheeled their barrow
A⁷

Through the streets broad and narrow
D G D G D A⁷ D

Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"

D A⁷

Alive, alive, oh! Alive, alive, oh! …

D A⁷

She died of a fever and so noone could save her
D A

And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
D

Now her ghost wheels her barrow
A⁷

Through the streets broad and narrow
D G D G D A⁷ D

Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"

D A⁷

Alive, alive, oh! Alive, alive, oh!
D G D G D A⁷ D

Crying "cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh"
