Courtin In The Kitchen Chords
A fun little Gaelic Storm version of a classic. It is my first attempt
at figuring a song out and, while basic, I hope some may find it of use!
I don't know how to differentiate the barre chords from the open, so I
used the asterisk. Criticism (improvements) welcome!

D xx0232
C x32010
Bm x24432
