G Em Am
In Dublin's fair city, where the girls are so pretty,

G D Am Em D G
Crying: Cockles and Mussels, Alive, Alive O.

Alive, alive O,

Alive, alive O.

She was a fishmonger, and sure twas no wonder,

And they all wheeled their barrows, through streets broad and narrow,
G D Am Em D G
Crying Cockles and Mussels, Alive, alive O.

Alive, alive O,

Alive, alive O.

She died of a fever, and no one to grieve her,
G E7 A7 D7

Now her ghost wheels her barrow, through streets broad and narrow,
G D Am Em D G
Crying: Cockles and Mussels, alive, alive O.

Alive, alive O

Alive, alive O

Crying, Cockles and Mussels
Am Em D7 G
Alive, alive O
