Kelly's Wellies
----------------------

Intro: D with Dsus4 for flair at the end of the measure.

             D
When I was a young un', I knew a lad from Ballybunion
                                    A
He hadn't got a single penny to his name, you might say
                 D
He had a raggedy coat, and like two rubber boats
            Bm                          A        D
He kept his wellington boots on from December to May


Chorus:
             G                           D
It was Kevin Kelly, with his chopped off wellies
                     A                          D
In the middle of the summer time he was looking fine!
              G                             D            A
His pants had holes in the knees but he was proud as you please
            G    A                       D
With his ol' wellies he keep strolling along


            D
As we got older and slyer and bolder 
                                          A
and the girls we had our eyes on they got older as well
                    G                        D
With paint on their faces and curves in nice places
             Bm                             A               D
Well we were dressed to impress them and we thought we were swell!


                      D
Well our duds were in fashion to kindle their passion
                                               A
But there was Kevin on the dance floor looking anything but neat
                 D
He was tryin' to flirt in his hand-me-down shirt,
         Bm                      A       D
with the same ol' wellies on his two big feet!

               Em                  
Well we teased him and we mocked him, but sure that never shocked him, 
   Bm                                 A
he painted on some laces and cut them down to look like shoes.
            Em
He was poor but he had style, he made everybody smile
       A
He wore his ol' wellies!
He wore his ol' wellies!
He wore his ol' wellies!
                         D    G    D    A
Like he'd nothin' to lose!

D    G    D A D

                 D
The next time we found him, well the girls were all around him
                                 A
He was busting the moves, he was happy as can be
                      D                   G
One of the girls came near, and whispered in my ear...
      D                          notes:  A      F#   D
"Only boys who wear their wellies have a chance wit' me."
