[Intro] C G D G C G D G [Verse 1]
    G                              C              G
The little boats are gone from the breast of Anna Liffey

    C                           D
The ferryman is stranded on the quay

         G                           C              G
Sure the Dublin docks is dying and a way of life is gone

    D            D7              G
And Molly it was part of you and me
[Chorus]
          D                     C           G
Where the Strawberry beds sweep down to the Liffey

    C                               D
You kissed away the worries from my brow

  G                            C               G
I love you well today and I'll love you more tomorrow

       D            D7            G
If you ever love me Molly love me now
[Verse 2]
          G                      C              G
T'was the only job I knew it was hard but never lonely

    C                          D
The Liffey ferry made a man of me

         G                          C              G
And it's gone without a whisper and forgotten even now

    D              D7                   G
And sure it's over Molly over can't you see
[Chorus]
          D                     C           G
Where the Strawberry beds sweep down to the Liffey

    C                               D
You kissed away the worries from my brow

  G                            C               G
I love you well today and I'll love you more tomorrow

       D            D7            G
If you ever love me Molly love me now

     G                               C                G
Well now I'll tend the yard and I'll spend me days in talking

         C                                  D
And I'll hear them whisper Charlie's on the dole

    G                            C                   G
But Molly we're still living and darling we're still young

         D           D7                 G
And that river never owned me heart and soul
[Chorus]
          D                     C           G
Where the Strawberry beds sweep down to the Liffey

    C                               D
You kissed away the worries from my brow

  G                            C               G
I love you well today and I'll love you more tomorrow

If you ever love me Molly love me now
[Outro]
          D                     C           G
Where the Strawberry beds sweep down to the Liffey

    C                               D
You kissed away the worries from my brow

  G                            C               G
I love you well today and I'll love you more tomorrow

       D            D7            G
If you ever love me Molly love me now

       D            D7            G   C   G   D G
If you ever love me Molly love me now
