   C             Am
In Dublin's fair city,

          Dm           G
where the girls are so pretty,

  C            Em            Dm      G
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone,

       C                 Am
As she wheeled her wheel-barrow,

        Dm                G
Through streets broad and narrow,

         C           Em        G            C
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"

  C            Am
"Alive, alive, oh,

 Dm           G
Alive, alive, oh",

        C           Em        G            C
Crying "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh".

    C         Am
She was a fishmonger,

    Dm            G
And sure 'twas no wonder,

    C           Em         Dm       G
For so were her father and mother before,

         C                  Am
And they each wheeled their barrow,

        Dm                G
Through streets broad and narrow,

         C           Em        G            C
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"

  C            Am
"Alive, alive, oh,

 Dm           G
Alive, alive, oh",

        C           Em        G            C
Crying "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh".

    C         Am
She died of a fever,

    Dm           G
And no one could save her,

    C            Em           Dm      G
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone.

        C                Am
Now her ghost wheels her barrow,

         Dm               G
Through streets broad and narrow,

         C           Em        G            C
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"

  C            Am
"Alive, alive, oh,

 Dm           G
Alive, alive, oh",

        C           Em        G            C
Crying "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh".
