Tell Me Ma

Chords
pin

G
Tell me Ma when I go home 
    D7                   G
The boys won't leave the girls alone.
 
They pulled my hair, they stole my comb
    D7             G
But that's OK till I go home.
                C
She is handsome she is pretty 
G                   D7
She is the belle of Belfast city
G                C
She's a courting one two three.
G                D              G
Please won't you tell me who is she.

G
Albert Mooney Says he loves her
    D7                    G
All the boys are fighting for her.

The rap at the door and ring the bell
       D7              G
Saying Oh my true love are you well.

G
Out she comes as white as snow
      D7                          G	
Rings on her fingers and bells on her toes.

Jenny Murray says she'll die
   D7                             G
If she doesn't get the fella with the roving eye.

G
Tell me Ma when I go home
    D7                   G
The boys won't leave the girls alone.
 
They pulled my hair, they stole my comb
    D7             G
But that's OK till I go home.
                C
She is handsome she is pretty
G                   D7
She is the belle of Belfast city
G                C
She's a courting one two three.
G                D              G
Please won't you tell me who is she.

G
Let the wind and the rain and the hail blow high
    D7                     G
And the snow come tumbling from the sky. 

She's as nice as apple pie
    D7                     G
And she'll get her own lad by and by.

G
When she gets a lad of her own
    D7                         G
She won't tell her Ma till she goes home.

But let them all come as they will
     D7                     G
It's Albert Mooney that she loves still.

G
Tell me Ma when I go home 
    D7                   G
The boys won't leave the girls alone.
 
They pulled my hair, they stole my comb
    D7             G
But that's OK till I go home.
                C
She is handsome she is pretty 
G                   D7
She is the belle of Belfast city
G                C
She's a courting one two three.
G                D              G
Please won't you tell me who is she.
