Flogging Molly nacieron en una de las muchas tabernas de los nietos de los emigrantes irlandeses de principios del siglo pasado que huyeron de la Gran Hambruna que mató a un millón de personas e hizo emigrar a otro millón y medio. Muy influenciados por la música de sus antepasados, comenzaron a tocar en la taberna de Molly Malones, en Los Angeles, dotando al folk irlandés de bandas como The Dubliners de otro tipo de música, más parecido a The Pogues.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!
If you're playing the electric parts, I suggest you play power chords for the verse and just single
root notes for the second part of the verse, and strum the chorus. That sounds the best to me but feel
free to have fun and strum however you please :)
Intro: EmGDBm (3x) EmGBEm
Verse 1.1 Bury me in silence For I'll never hear the truth
EmGDBm
My coffin will be empty Cause you'll never steal my youth
EmGDBm
VERSE 1.2
EmG I was born to live beside you ABm But you tried to stop me grow EmG Now I'm living on the run ABm From all this hatred you now love EmG Who said it only rains BmEm From the heavens above
"short" CHORUS GEm Speed of darkness lights our way GEm We set our course for America DEm No bitterness will bite my tongue DA The speed of darkness has begun
EmGDBm (Begun)
EmGDBm
VERSE 2.1 and 2.2 same as before It's something of a pity But you'll never understand How a boy can grow and Still never be a man
I would trade the sun for nothing And the glancing of a star If you could just remember Grains of dust is all we are It only takes a second For a beat to kill a heart
CHORUS 2 GEm Speed of darkness lights our way GEm We set our course for America DEm No bitterness will bite this tongue G I've reconciled with all that's gone DA The speed of darkness has begun
INTERLUDE F#mBm Only time and life will tell F#mDA But it's a long way home when you're in hell F#mBm Where constant demons fracture souls F#mDA Once a nightmare, now just lifeless ghosts
SOLO B5D (2x)
BRIDGE GBmA Speed of darkness lights our way
VERSE 3.1 and 3.2 same as before You tore this land asunder But my pride will bring it back
I would trade the sun for nothing And the glancing of a star If you could just remember Grains of dust is all we are It only takes a second For beat to kill a heart
CHORUS 2
OUTRO EmGDBm 3x EmGBmEm
That's it, this song is fun as hell to play. Enjoy
