I'll G tell me ma when Cadd9 I go G home,
The D7 boys won't leave the g G irls alone
G They pull my hair, they s Cadd9 tole my c G omb,
But D7 that's all right 'til G I go home
G She is handsome, Cadd9 she is pretty,
G She's the belle of D7 Belfast City,
G She is courtin', a C one, two, three
G Please won't you tell me D7 who is G she?
Break over verse chorus chords
Now Albert Mooney says he loves her,
An' all the boys are fighting for her.
Knocking on the door and they're ringing on the bell,
Saying, "Oh my true love, are you well?"
Down she comes as white as snow
With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes.
Old Johnny Murphy says she'll die
If she doesn't get the fellow with the roving eye
CHORUS, Break over Verse\chorus chords.
Let the wind and the rain and the hail come high,
And the snow come shoveling from the sky.
She's as nice as apple pie,
She'll get her own lad by and by!
an' |When she gets a lad of her own
She won't tell her ma when she comes home.
Let them all come as they will
It's Patrick Murphy she loves still!
CHORUS, with the "she is..." part
repeated twice
Ending: |G C G| D7 G|
