Gaelic Storm

Kellys Wellies

by Gaelic Storm
Gaelic Storm

Biography:

Gaelic Storm is a highly-acclaimed Celtic band. Their music ranges from traditional Irish and Scottish music to original tunes, in both the Celtic traditions. Gaelic Storm's origins can be traced back to 1996, when Patrick Murphy and Steve Wehmeyer joined with Steve Twigger and Uillean piper Brian Walsh to perform at O'Brien's Irish Pub and Restaurant in Santa Monica, California, of which Murphy was the manager. This led to a number of pub performances for the next year.

Gaelic Storm
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 Bm 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!


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 Bm 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


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."


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 Bm 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


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 Bm A
His pants had holes in the knees but he was proud as you please
G A D G D A D
With his ol' wellies he keep strolling along
