(For the next verses, you can swap the chord patterns of the |
|
|
first two lines and second two lines, so you start with |
|
|
|
for the first line. Dubliners usualy do swap, but not always. |

Do as you like better...) |

Albert Mooney says he loves her, |
|
|
all the boys are fightin' for her, |
|
|
Knock at the door, ring at the bell, |
|
|
and "Oh, me true love, are you well?" |
|
|
Out she comes, white as snow, |
|
|
rings on her fingers, bells on her toes |
|
|
Ould Johny Morrissey says she'll die, |
|
|
if she doesn't get a fella with the roving eye. |
|
|
|
Let the wind and the rain and the hail blow high, |
|
|
and the snow comes a travelin' through the sky, |
|
|
She's as sweet as an apple pie, |
|
|
she'll get her own lad by and by, |
|
|
When she gets a lad of her own, |
|
|
she won't tell her ma when she gets home. |
|
|
Let them all come as they will, |
|
|
It's Albert Mooney she loves still. |
