Christy Moore – House Down In Carne (Guitar)

Dm
My name is Nuke Power, a terror am I

      C
I can cause such destruction on land, sea, and sky

    Dm
The Minister says that I'll do you no harm

   Dm
If he locks me up in this house down in Carne

               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay

                                             Dm
I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay

         Dm
Oh he'll have me well guarded, by night and by day

     C
With soldiers on land and with sailors at sea

    Dm
But no one can tame me, I'll be restless, I warn

   Dm
If he tries to lock me in this house down in Carne

               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay

                                             Dm
I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay

       Dm
Such a beautiful country I see all around

      C
Where people and flowers even fishes abound

     Dm
I'll change that whole scene in 5 seconds, I warn

   Dm
If I once escape from that house down in Carne

               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay

                                             Dm
I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay

     Dm
I'll strangle all children, I'll strangle all dogs

     C
I'll strangle all creatures in land, sea, and bog

     Dm
I'll devastate Ireland from Killarney to Larne

   Dm
If I once escape from that house down in Carne

               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay

                                             Dm
I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay

  Dm
I know of three sources called wind, rain, and sun

     C
Very powerful are they, but they're also great fun

      Dm
Treat them with respect and they'll do you no harm

        Dm
They'll work for you free every day down in Carne

               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay

                                                Dm
They won't cripple or maim, or cause death or decay

      Dm
So to all you fine people, I'll make this strong plea

C
Go tell your Minister to let me go free

       Dm
If you don't try to use me, I'll do you no harm

Dm
Don't let him lock me in his house down in Carne

               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay

                                             Dm
I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay

               C
Tooraloo, Tooralay

                                             Dm
I'll cripple and maim, and cause death and decay
