Flogging Molly é uma banda estadunidense de punk celta formada em Los Angeles, Califórnia, no ano de 1997.
A banda nasceu em uma das muitas tabernas de netos de imigrantes irlandeses do começo do século passado. Muito influenciados por seus antepassados, começaram a tocar na taberna de Molly Malones, em Los Angeles.
O primeiro disco da banda, "Alive Behind the Green Door", foi gravado ao vivo, na taberna.
Em 2002, a banda lança "Drunken Lullabies" que incluía um de seus maiores sucessos, a canção de mesmo nome.

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
AmCAmGAmC - AmCAmGDm
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'
