[D] [Em] Cut [D] the hair and turn it [B] down the rocky [D] road
And all the way to [E] Dublin back for [Em] Lolli Rath
It was in the merry months of May
From me home I started, left me girls [D] in June
I'm nearly [Em] broken, had a saluted father dear
Kiss me darling mother, drank a pint of [D] beer
Me creeping tears, I [Em] smothered it up to [D] eat the [Em] corn
Leave where I was born, cut yourself [D] like corn
To vanish ghosts in [Em] Dublin for a [D] pair of [Em] robes
Rattling all the bogs and frightening [D] all the dogs
On the rocky road to Dublin, one, [Em] two, three, four, five
Cut [G] the hair and turn it down [Gbm] the rocky [D] road
And all the way to [E] Dublin back for [Em] Lolli Rath
[Am] [G] [B]
[D] [G] [B]
[Em] In Mullingar that night [Gb] I wrestled him [Em] so weary
Started by [D] daylight, next morning bright [Em] and hairy
Took a drop of the cure, keep me hard from sinking
That's the paddy score, [D] when airy's on for drinking
[Em] To see the [D] lassie [Em] smile, laughing all the while
Up me [D] curious thoughts would set your heart to [Em] bubble
And [D] mastify with [Em] sword, wages I required
Till I [D] was almost tired of the rocky road
To Dublin, one, two, three, [Em] four, five
Cut [G] the hair and [B] turn it down the rocky road
[D] And all the way to [Em] Dublin back for Lolli [Fm] Rath
In Dublin next arrived I thought it such a pity
To be so soon [Eb] deprived of view of that [Fm] fine city
So then I took a stroll, all among the quality
Me bundle it [Eb] was stole, in a neat [Fm] locality
Something [Eb] crossed me [Fm] mind, when I looked behind
No bundle [Eb] could I find, on me stinko [Fm] of an enquiring [Eb] father
[Fm] Oh, they said me connoisseur wasn't [Eb] much involved
On the rocky road [F] to Dublin, one, two, [Fm] three, four, five
Cut [Ab] the hair and turn [Bb] it down the rocky [Eb] road
And all the way to [Fm] Dublin back for Lolli Rath
[Eb]
[Fm]
From there I got [Bb] away, me spirits never failing
Landed on the [Eb] quay, just as the ship was sailing
Captain at [Bb] me roared, said that no room had he
When [Cm] I jumped aboard, [Eb] a cabin found for [Fm] baddie
Down among [C] the [Fm] plagues, I played some pony rakes
Danced some [Eb] hearty jigs, the water wrong me [Fm] bubble
And when the folly hit, I wished me self was dead
Or better [Eb] for instead, on the rocky road
To Dublin, one, two, [Fm] three, four, five
Cut the hair and turn [Cm] it down the rocky [Eb] road
And all the way to Dublin back [Fm] for Lolli Rath
The plane of Liverpool, made me safely landed
Called me self a fool, could no longer [Fm] stand it
The blood began to boil, hoover I was losing
Full air and [Eb] tile, they began a [Fm] fusing
And found me self a zile, to Lely Island flying
Some Galway boys [Eb] were by, saw I was a hobble
[Fm] And whistled out a ray, joining the afray
We quickly cleared [Eb] the way, on the rocky [F] road to Dublin
[Eb] [Fm]
[N]
