G Em Am
In Dublin's fair city, where the girls are so pretty
G E7 A7 D7
I first set my eyes on sweet Molloy Malone
G Em D7
She wheeled a wheelbarrow, through streets broad and narrow
G D- Am Em D G
Crying: Cockles and Mussels, Alive, Alive O
G Em
Chorus: Alive, alive O
Am D7
Alive, alive O
G D-
Crying, cockles and Mussels
Am Em D7 G
Alive, alive O
She was a fishmonger, and sure twas no wonder
For so were her Father and Mother before
And they all wheeled their barrows,
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying: Cockles and Mussels, Alive, alive O
(chorus)
She died of a faver, and no one to grieve her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
Now her ghost wheels her barrow
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying: Cockles and Mussels, alive, alive O
(chorus)
