When his mother came to _ know
[Db] You were going away my son, [Bbm] she _ said
You will drink before [Gb] you _ go _
_ You'll drink [Bbm] before you _ go
_ She's called for a cask of the very best wine
[Gb] Then filled a [Db] [Gb] glass for him
_ [Ebm]
[Db] Ooh, ooh, father falls with [Ab] her two [Eb]
fingers
_ [Bbm] _ _ She's put strong poison [Gb] _ _ _ _ in
She's put strong [Bbm] poison _ in _
_ Oh why, oh why dear mother he _ said
[Gb] Are you [Eb] poisoned me [Gb] full _ store

[Bbm] And when he came to Mary Flynn's high tower
[Gb] He stepped into the _ hall
_ [Db] The table lay the [Eb] music [Bbm] _ played _
The ladies [Gb] dancing all
_ _ The ladies dancing [Bbm] _ _ all
_ What brought you here my pretty little boy

My [Db] mother set the place [Bbm] for _ _ you
I yet invited [Gb] _ thee
_ I [Db] _ [Gb] yet [Bbm] invited _ _ thee

_ At Lord and [Gb] for us there
_ _ At Lord and [Bbm] for us there _ _

_ Without the [Gb] least delay _
_ _ Without _ the least [Bbm] delay

_ The _ torches [Gb] burning all _ _ _
_ The torches [Bbm] burning _ all
_ What brought you here Mary Flynn she _ said

[Db] The ring that on his [Ab] little [Bbm] _
finger
_ _ I came to pray [Gb] for thee
_ I _ [Db]
came [Gb] to [Bbm] pray for thee _
No ring, no ring Mary Flynn she said

_ _ _ [Ebm] [Db] For the pain of heaven it came [Bbm] so quick
_ _ But it split the [Gb] ring in _ two
_ It split the ring [Bbm] in [Eb] two _ _ _
