I’LL TELL ME MA - THE DUBLINERS

   G+G                D MajorD          G+G
I’ll tell me ma when I get home, the boys won’t leave the girls alone,
   G+G                   D MajorD           G+G
They pulled me hair, they stole me comb but that’s all right till I go home.
 G+G        C majorC       G+G         D MajorD
She is handsome, she is pretty she’s the Belle of Belfast city,
 G+G         C majorC        G+G        D MajorD        G+G
She is a courtin’ a one two three, Please won’t you tell me who is she?


G+G                D MajorD        G+G
Albert Mooney says he loves her, all the boys are fightin’ for her,
 G+G                     D MajorD        G+G
Knock at the door, ring at the bell, and "Oh, me true love, are you well?"
G+G        C majorC       G+G           D MajorD
Out she comes, white as snow, rings on her fingers, bells on her toes
G+G          C majorC            G+G       D MajorD       G+G
Old Johny Morrissey says she’ll die, if she doesn’t get a fella with the roving eye.

   G+G                D MajorD          G+G
I’ll tell me ma when I get home, the boys won’t leave the girls alone,
   G+G                   D MajorD           G+G
They pulled me hair, they stole me comb but that’s all right till I go home.
 G+G        C majorC       G+G         D MajorD
She is handsome, she is pretty she’s the Belle of Belfast city,
 G+G         C majorC        G+G        D MajorD        G+G
She is a courtin’ a one two three, Please won’t you tell me who is she?

    G+G                         D MajorD           G+G
Let the wind and the rain and the hail blow high, and the snow comes a travelin’ through the sky,
 G+G                   D MajorD        G+G
She’s as sweet as an apple pie, she’ll get her own lad by and by,
 G+G        C majorC         G+G           D MajorD
When she gets a lad of her own, she won’t tell her ma when she gets home.
 G+G         C majorC         G+G   D MajorD   G+G
Let them all come as they will, It’s Albert Mooney she loves still.
