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.

BmF#m Your passin' broke the silence GA On that dark October day BmF#m The sun was headin' for the west GA As it did I heard you say BmF#m I set my sail for a gentle breeze GA Now I leave this world as it was meant to be GADABm And you did you listen to anything I said GABm Did you ever listen to me
Though now it seems you'll never know But every lad to a man must grow Till winter comes to celebrate Then proudly chills the bone When at last they bury me Into this ground you'll someday see And you did you listen to anything I said
GAD Did you ever listen to me
G Though the face we wear D Sometimes seldom speaks G From the babe that cries D To this grown man's feet G May the hand still write D And its' heart shape keep GBm Till our fathers sons and daughters agree
BmAG
BmAG So I will pave this road till glory BmAG Sets our broken spirit free BmAG From every cross-soaked nail pours endless rain DABm With tears no eye should see BmAG But they could fill our highest ocean BmAG And the rivers in between AmGF With every blade that flowers must grow then drown CGE With love our cruelest sea
