[D]Sam is coming home,
back to Molly Malone
He’s [A]tired of cutting cabbages
in Kerry and Ty[D]rone
He misses Anna [G]Liffey,
the [D]coddle and the [A]crack
Sam is coming home again,
he wants a welcome [D]back
Verses:
[D]O'Carroll is the full back for the famous boys in blue,
Ma[A]cauley gets the breaking ball with
Ross McConnell [D]too
Cluxton takes the [G]forty fives, the [D]Brogans score from [A]play
And goals from Flynn &
Connolly send the Dubs along their[D] way.
[D]We sang about the 70's the decade of the Dubs
Sam [A]Maguire was happy then around the Dublin [D]clubs
Now
all the years of [G]exile, [D]lonlieness and [A]pain
They're nearly over now for he's coming home a[D]gain
[D]Sam is coming home,
back to Molly Malone
He’s [A]tired of cutting cabbages
in Kerry and Ty[D]rone
He misses Anna [G]Liffey,
the [D]coddle and the [A]crack
Sam is coming home again,
he wants a welcome [D]back.
[D]When the Dubs. go in to life the Sam Maguire,
We'll be [A]there, we'll be there.
When the [D]Dubs. go in
to life the Sam Maguire,
We'll be [A]there, we'll be [D]there
We’ll take him down O’Connell Street and to the GPO
We’ll bring him in to James Gate to say a quick
hello
Up the Dublin mountains to see the fields of green
And then we’ ll take him home again to live on Hill
16
Hill 16 was singing in the year of eighty three
The time the twelve apostles would not show bended knee
So
many yearsa we’ve waited since nineteen ninety five
Here’s to all the Dublin folk who kept the flame alive
