Cockles And Mussels


    D                                         A7
In Dublin's fair city, where the girls are so pretty, 
    D                                                   A
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone, 
            D                                              A7 
As she pushed her wheel barrow, Through streets broad and narrow, 
            D         G   D           G D     A7 D
Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive, Oh!
Chorus:
    D                      A7
Alive, alive, Oh! Alive, alive, Oh! 
            D         G   D           G D     A7 D
Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive, Oh!
She was a fishmonger, but it sure was no wonder, 
For so were her father and mother before, 
And they each pushed their wheel-barrow, 
Through streets broad and narrow, 
Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive, Oh!
She died of a fever, and no one could save her, 
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone; 
Her ghost wheels her barrow, 
Through streets broad and narrow, 
Crying cockles and mussels alive, alive, Oh!
