"Mush Mush" is the song heard in The Quiet Man when all of those drunk guys

were bringing John Wayne and

Maureen O'Hara her furniture the morning after the wedding. Barleyjuice does

an excellent rendition of

this song here.

In each verse on the fourth and last lines, draw out the first word for a few

beats. Listen to the

recording to hear an example.

[Verse 1]
G D
'Twas there I learned readin' and writin'
C D G
At Dick Crowley's where I went to school
G D Am
And 'twas there I learned howlin' and fightin'
D G D7 G
From me schoolmaster Mr. O'Toole
G D
Him and me we had many a scrimmage
C D G
And devil a copy I wrote
G D Am
There was ne'er a gossoon in the village
Am G D7 G
Dare tread on the tail of me coat

[Chorus]
G D
Singin' mush mush mush toor-i-li-addy
C D G
Sing mush mush mush toor-i-li-ay
G D Am
There was ne'er a gossoon in the village
D G D G
Dare tread on the tail of me coat

[Verse 2]
G D
'Twas there I learned all of me courtin'
C D G
Many lessons I took in the art
G D Am
Till Cupid, the blackguard, while sportin'
D G D7 G
An arrow drove straight through me heart
G D
Molly O'Connor, she lived just forninst me
C D G
And tender lines to her I wrote
G D Am
If you dare say one hard word ag'in 'er
Am G D7 G
I'll tread on the tail of your coat
