Ymerodraeth State Of Mind

(início)

               C
Yeah I'm up at Ridgeway
Now I'm down the Moorings, right next to the Debenhams
And I'll be Port forever
G *          F
Yes it is my lifeblood
These streets they are a part of me
The yin to my yang
The Craig to my Bellamy
G *             C
Catch me in the kitchen
I've got cheese I'm melting it
Caerphilly, bread and ham
Hey presto it's a Rarebit
G *         F
Head out to Caerleon
Off-white transit
Febreeze on the dash for the stain where my nan sits
G *        C
Out for the big one, sniffin' on the miaow miaow
DJ on the ones and twos, spinnin' Little Bow Wow
G *               F
On the dancefloor raving, pack of 16 Benson
Someone fighting bouncers...turns out it's Gavin Henson
G *       C
Big up to Plaid Cymru, and the Welsh Assembly
Big up to Millennium: we don't need no Wembley
G *       F
Keep your Big Apple...
We'll have a tangerine
Bugger of Alicia, Shirley Bassey is our queen
G *                 Am
Round here we stick together
                G
Like birds of a feather...
                      E
Except we're not from Chigwell...
We're from the small Welsh town of...
CHORUS
F
Newport
G                           Am
Concrete jumble, nothing in order
                     C
Not far from the border....
               F
When you're in Newport
G                              Am
Chips and curry makes you feel brand new
                   C
Washed down with a Special Brew
                F
Repeat the word Newport, Newport, Newport
2ND VERSE
                  C
Catch me at Gwent Dragons in my fleece watching real sport
Shit, I make the Dragons' fleece more famous than the Argonauts
G*                F
And now that I've made it here I can make it anywhere
Signed a girl's baubles when I headlined at the local fair
G *           C
Yeah know the D to the V to the A
Dad said "Get a job with them ," but Swansea's too far away
G *              F
So look me up on Google -- I'm seven pages in
Was in the local paper, Mam threw it in the bin
G *                C
She didn't see the article calling me a rap star
Ripped it into pieces, and used it for the hamster
G *        F
Tom Jones, Steve Jones, Zeta Jones, traffic cones
If you come and visit use the Designated Parking Zones
G *               C
There's a snooker hall, see but I'm not a member...
And a lovely shopping centre opened in December
G *             Am
So head over the water
            G
On the transporter
              E
Fifty for the toll booth
Male Voice Choir singing out...
CHORUS
F
Newport
G                                 Am
Twinned with Guangxi, Province in China
                    C
There's no province finer
                    F
Josie D'Arby's from Newport
G                                 Am
Yes, it's strange, we didn't know either...
              C
Thank you Wikipedia
                    F
Let's say some more Newport, Newport, Newport
