Bb          F7
In Dublin Town
Bb
where I did dwell
F7
A butcher boy
Bb
Iloved so well,
Gm
He courted me
Cm
my life away
F7
And now with me,
Bb
he will not stay.


F7
I wish I wish
Bb
But I wish in vain
F7
I wish I was
Bb
A maid again?
Gm
But a maid again
Cm
I ne'er can be
F7
Till apples grow
Bb
On an ivy tree.


She went upstairs
To go to bed
And calling to
Her mother said
Bring me a chair
Till I sit down
And a pen and ink
Till I write down

F7
I wish I wish
Bb
But I wish in vain
F7
I wish I was
Bb
A maid again?
Gm
But a maid again
Cm
I ne'er can be
F7
Till apples grow
Bb
On an ivy tree

He went upstairs
And the door he broke
And found her hanging
From her rope
He took his knife
And cut her down
And in her pocket
These words he found:

oh, make my grave
Large, wide and deep
Put a marble stone
At my head and feet
And in the middle
A turtle dove
So the world may know
I died of love .
