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.

Verse: AmDm Picture an ending before it's begun GAm The art of forgiveness is not what we're taught AmDm Reek of the havoc already made GCG The cradle was damaged, dug by the grave AmDm Where you lie in the sin, for mortal's the soul GAm Forgive me this father before I go cold AmDm From burden of grief and all I regret GEm Spare me the conscience before I forget
Chorus: CG For once in this life DmAm I better do something right CGAm But i'm caught in a world that won't stop burnin'
CGAm That won't stop burnin'

Verse: AmDm Jump through the arms with a mindless desire GAm Hand in your pocket, burnt by the fire AmDm Cold as the stone you threw at the wall GCG Blood never boils till the pressure is high AmDm With despise of the fear that festers the growth G The truth always beckons Em Don't lose what you stole
Chorus: CG For once in this life DmAm I better do something right CGAm (B5) Don't bury the voice that's not yet spoken CG I'll challenge the flames DmAm Till this man with no country remains CGAm Still caught in a world that won't stop burnin'
EmDmEmDm Right or wrong, this is where I belong I've always belonged

EmDmEmDm If the truth be known, there's no place left to go No place I can go

AmDm But there is a light G There's still a spark CAm There is no place in this room for the dark AmDmAm So scatter the bones that's left of the old CEm For dust only settles when bored Settles when bored
Chorus: CG For once in this life DmAm I better do something right CGAm (B5) Don't bury the voice that's not yet spoken CG I'll challenge the flames DmAm Till this man with no country remains CGAm Still caught in a world that won't stop burnin'
