One [G]day in December I'll [D]never for-[G]get
A charming young creature I [Am7]happily [D]met
Her [G]eyes shone like diamonds, she was [C]dressed up to [G]kill
She was [C]tripping and [G]slipping down [D]Citadel [G]Hill

{eoc}
I [G]says, "My fair creature, you [D]will me ex-[G]cuse!"
I offered my arm and she [Am7]did not re-[D]fuse
Her [G]arm locked in mine made me [C]feel love's sweet [G]thrill
As we [C]walked off to-[G]gether down [D]Citadel [G]Hill

The [G]very next day to the [D]church we did [G]go
The people all whispered, as [Am7]well you must [D]know
Said the [G]priest, "Will you marry?" Says [C]I, "That we [G]will!"
So we [C]kissed and were [G]hitched upon [D]Citadel [G]Hill

{eoc}
So [G]now we are married and of [D]children have [G]three
But me and the missus can [Am7]never a-[D]gree
The [G]first she called Bridget, the [C]second one [G]Bill
Says [C]I, "The runt's [G]name shall be [D]Citadel [G]Hill."

{eoc}
Now come [G]all you young fellows, take [D]warning by [G]me
If ever in need of a [Am7]wife you may [D]be
I'll [G]tell you the place where [C]you'll get your [G]fill
Just go [C]tripping and [G]slipping down [D]Citadel [G]Hill
