[D] Well in the Marymont of Maynard from my home I started like the ghost, the tomb [C] was nearly broken, had it saluted [D] by the dear, I kissed me darling [G] mother, then drank a pint [C] of beer, me grief and tears [Dm] was smothered, then off [C] to read [Dm] the con, leave [Em] it I was [D] born, but I [C] stepped back down to finish closed, [D] and got me a brand new pair of clothes, well on and off with the bobs, [C] brightening all the dozen of rocky roads, a [D] double and one, two, three, four, five, off to Harrington, I tell the rocky [Am] road, and all the ways to Dublin, what a [D] loundy job.
In Marlingard that night I rested limbs so weary, started by [C] daylight, next morning light, and there I took a [D] drop of the beer, to keep me head from sinking, that's the paddy's [C] cure, whatever [Am] he's on for, [D] drinking to hear the [C] lassie [D] smile, [G] laughing all the [D] while, and the [C] curious I was such a had a [D] bum, and I asked him [C] was I [D] hired, [G] wages I required, I was [C] sick and tired of the rocky roads, a [D] double and one, two, three, four, five, off to Harrington, I tell the rocky [C] road, and all the [D] ways to Dublin, what a loundy job.
In Dublin next arrived, I got it such a pity to be so soon [C] deprived, a view of that fine [G] city, when I [D] took a stroll, all among the quality my [Am] bundle it was stalled, in that [D] neat locality something crossed me mind, when I [C] looked [D] behind the bundle did [C] I find, upon me stick a [D] wall and inquire, and [C] after a [Dm] row, said me [C] con I'm [Dm] broke, wasn't [C] much and broke, and the rocky roads, a [D] double and one, two, three, four, five, off to Harrington, I tell the rocky [C] road, [G] and all the ways to Dublin, what a [D] loundy job.
But never I got away, my spirit never failed, and landed on the [C] quay, as the ship was [G] sailing, captain [D] at me rode, said that nor am I hardy, when I jumped [C] aboard, a cabin firm for [D] paddy, down [C] among the [Dm] pigs, [C] did some hardy [B] rigs, I danced some [C] hardy jigs, the water round me [Dm] bubbled, and wiped off [C] all he [D] had, wish [C] myself was [D] dead, I bet I'd [C] throw, and said on the rocky roads, a [A] double and one, two, [D] three, four, five, off to Harrington, I tell the rocky [C] road, and all the ways to Dublin, what a [D] loundy job.
Well the boys of Liverpool, when we safely landed, they called me [C] a fool, I could no longer stand it, blood [D] began to boil, temper I was losing, poor old [C] Erin's oil, they [D] began abusing her, and we saw Mrs.
O'Masha lay [G] lay on the quay, told the [C] way boys come by and saw I was [D] a hobbling, with [C] a loud [D] hooray, joined [Am] in the upray, [D] quickly [C] cleared the way for the rocky roads, a double and one, two, [D] three, four, five, off to Harrington, I tell the rocky [C] road, and all the ways [D] to Dublin, what a loundy job.
