key: G
    G          C       G
The wind blows cold at night
    G         D    G
The brave are melancholy
       G                           C          G
If you stand in the dark with your ear to the wind
       G                 D
You'll hear the sound of Molly
G                        C        G
Deep in the dark of that old mine shaft
    G                   D
You smell the smoke and fire
        G                 C      G
And the murmur low in the mine below
       G        D       G
Is the ghost of Molly Maguire


[Verse 1]

       G                         C           G
Let me tell you me boys, Michael Doyle is my name
  G         D      G
I come from Carbon County
  G                    C         G
I shot the boss of the Langsford Mine
   G              D
My soul is up for bounty
    G                  C         G
And I will die with my head held high
  G                    D
I fought for the men below
    G                C         G
The men who work and fight and die
G            D          G
Down in that black hell hole


[Verse 2]

         G                         C             G
And I'll tell you my boys, Michael Finnegan's my name
    G       D           G
I'm hanging high in the morning
      G                   C           G
For I shot Jack Jones for skinning my bones
  G                  D
I curse the sound of mourning
    G                  C         G
And I will die with my head held high
  G                    D
I fought for the men below
    G                C         G
The men who work and fight and die
G           D        G
Down in the black hell hole


[Verse 3]

        G                      C              G
Well, I tell you me boys, Alex Campbell is my name
   G      D     G
No pistol did I fire
    G                    C        G
And I will fall from the gallows wall
    G               D
For being a Molly Maguire
     G                  C         G
Yes, I will die with my head held high
  G                    D
I fought for the men below
    G                C         G
The men who work and fight and die
G            D          G
Down in that black hell hole


[Chorus]

    G          C       G
The wind blows cold at night
    G         D    G
The brave are melancholy
       G*                          C          G
If you stand in the dark with your ear to the wind
       G                 D
You'll hear the sound of Molly
G                        C        G
Deep in the dark of that old mine shaft
    G                   D*
You smell the smoke and fire
        G                 C      G
And the murmur low in the mine below
       G        D       G
Is the ghost of Molly Maguire

         G        D       G
It's the ghost of Molly Maguire
