tell me 

ma when 

I get 

home, the 
D
boys won't 

leave the

lone,

	They 
G
pulled me 

hair, they 

stole me 

comb but 
D
that's all 

right till 
G
I go 

home.

Belle of

Please won't you

for her,

 
G
Knock at the 

door, 

ring at the 

bell, and 
D
"Oh, me 

true love, 
G
are you 

well?"

 
G
Out she 

comes, 
C
white as 

snow, 
G
rings on her 

fingers, 
D
bells on her 

toes

 
G
Old Johny 

Morrissey

says she'll 

die, if she 
G
doesn't get a 
D
fella with the 
G
roving 

eye.

Let the 
G
wind and the 

rain and the 

hail blow 

high, and the 
D
snow come 

travelin' 
G
through the 

sky,

 
G
She's as 

sweet as 

apple 

pie, 
D
she'll get her 

own lad 
G
by and 

by,

 
G
When she 

gets a 
C
lad of her 

own, she 
G
won't tell her 

ma when 
D
she gets 

home.

 
G
Let them all 

come 
C
as they 

will, It's 
G
Albert 
D
Mooney 
G
she loves 

still.
