[Verse 1]
[Am]In D[E]ubli[Am]n's fair city,
in Dublin's fair town,
There lived a young maid
by [G]the name of [Am]Miss Brown.
She courted a sailor for
sev[G]en long [Am]years,
And from the beginning he
called her his [E]dear.[Am]
One morning so early
by the break of the day
He came to her window
and [G]to her [Am]did say
Rise up, Bonnie Mary,
and [G]come you with [Am]me.
Such things they will happen,
such things you will [E]see.[Am]
He took her o 'er mountain,
he took her o 'er dell.
She heard through the morning
the [G]sound of a [Am]bell.
All over the ocean, all [G]over the [Am]sea,
You maidens of Dublin,
take warnin' by [E]me.[Am]
O sailor,
O sailor, come spare me my life,
But out of his pocket he [G]took a pen[Am]knife,
He stabbed her, and ripped her,
and cut her [G]in [Am]three,
And he buried poor Mary
beneath a green [E]tree.[Am]
Now green grows the laurel,
and red blows the rose,
And the dark birds will follow
wherever [G]he [Am]goes,
Singing sailor, oh sailor,
wherever [G]you [Am]be,
The blood flows forever

[Outro 1]
beneath the green tree.
[Am][E][Am]
