Dropkick Murphys - CAPTAIN [G]KELLY'S KITCHEN (COURTIN' IN

[Verse 1]
[F]
[G]THE KITCHEN)
Come [C]single guy and gal unto

[Verse 2]
[C]
me pay at[G]tention
Don't [C]ever fall in love
It's the [F]devil's own in[G]vention
For [C]once he fell in love with
a maiden so be[G]witching
Miss [F]Henrietta Bell down in [G]Captain
Kelly's kit[C]chen
CHORUS: With me toora loora la, me
[G]toora loora laddie

[Verse 3]
[C]Me
toora loora la and [G]me
toora loor[C]a laddie

[Verse 4]
At the age [C]of seventeen
I apprenticed to a [G]grocer
Not [C]far from Stephen's Green
[F]Where Miss Henri' used to [G]go sir
Her [C]manners were sublime she
set my heart a- [G]twitchin'
When [F]she invited me to a [G]party
in the kitchen

[Verse 5]
CHORUS: [C]With me
toora loora la,
me [G]toora loora laddie
Me [C]toora loora la an[G]d me
[C]toora loora laddie

[Verse 6]
[C]Sunday was the day that they
were to have their [G]flare- up
He [C]dressed himself quite gay
I [F]frizzed and oiled [G]my hair up
The [C]Captain had no wife and
he had [G]gone a- fishin'
She [F]groped me on the stairs be
[G]neath the old man's kitchen
CHORUS: [C]With me toora loora la,

[Verse 7]
[C]
me toora loor[G]a laddie
Me [C]toora loora la and me
[G]toora loor[C]a laddie

[Verse 8]
Her arms around my waist [C]she
slyly hinted marriage
When to the door in haste came
Captain Kelly's carriage
Her eyes were full of hate and
poison she was spittin'
The [F]Captain kicked the door [C]in and
[G]stormed into the kitchen
CHORUS: [C]With me

[Verse 9]
toora loora la,
me toor[G]a loora laddie
[C]Me toora loora la and [G]me toora loor
[C]a laddie

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][C][G][C]
[G][F][G]
When the [C]Captain came

[Verse 10]
downstairs he saw my situ[G]ation
In [C]spite of all his prayers he was [F]marched
off to [G]the station
For him they'd [C]take no bail
To get home I was [G]itchin'
He [F]had to tell the tale how I [G]came
into the kitchen

[Verse 11]
[C]CHORUS:
With me toora loora la,
me toora loor[G]a laddie
Me [C]toora loora la an[G]d m[C]e toora loora laddie

[Verse 12]
I [C]said she did invite me
But she gave [G]flat denial
For as[C]sault she did indict me
and [F]I was sent for [Em]tri a[G]l
She [C]swore he'd robbed her house
In spite of all her screechin'
[G]I got[F] six[C] months hard
[G]For his courtin' in the [C]kitchen

[Verse 13]
CHORUS: With me toora loora la,
[C]
me toora loor[G]a laddie
Me toor[C]a loora la an[G]d me
[C]toora loora laddie
