[Intro 1]
[A][D][A][E][A]

[Chorus 1]
I"ll [A]tell me ma, when [D]I go h[A]ome
The [E]boys won't leave the [A]girls alone
Pulled me hair, [D]stole me [A]comb
But [E]that's alright, till [A]I go home
She is handsome, [D]she is pretty
[A]She is the belle of [E]Dublin city
[A]She is a-courting [D]one, two, three
[A]Pray, want you [E]tell me [A]who is she?

[Verse 1]
[A]Albert Mooney [D]says he [A]loves her
[E]All the boys are [A]fightin' for her
Knock at the door, they're [D]ringin' the [A]bell
Say, "Hel[E]lo, my true love [A]are you well?"
Out she comes [D]white as snow
[A]Rings on her fingers, [E]bells on her toes
[A]Ol' Jenny Murray [D]says she'll die
If she [A]doesn't get the [E]fellow
with the [A]roving eye

[Chorus 2]
I'll [A]tell me ma, when [D]I go h[A]ome
The [E]boys won't leave the [A]girls alone
Pulled me hair, [D]stole me [A]comb
But [E]that's alright, till [A]I go home
She is handsome, [D]she is pretty
[A]She is the belle of [E]Dublin city
[A]She is a-courting [D]one, two, three
[A]Pray, want you [E]tell me [A]who is she?

[Verse 2]
Let the [A]wind and the rain
and the [D]hail blow [A]high
And the [E]snow come travelin' [A]through the sky
She's as sweet as [D]apple [A]pie
[E]She'll get her own right [A]by and by
When she gets a [D]lad of her own
She [A]won't tell her ma when [E]she gets home
[A]Let them all come [D]as they will
It's [A]Albert [E]Mooney [A]she loves still

[Chorus 3]
I'll [A]tell me ma, when [D]I go h[A]ome
The [E]boys won't leave the [A]girls alone
Pulled me hair, [D]stole me [A]comb
But [E]that's alright, till [A]I go home
She is handsome, [D]she is pretty
[A]She is the belle of [E]Dublin city
