1ST VERSE
        C majorC
Yeah I'm up at Ridgeway

Now I'm down the Moorings, right next to the Debenhams

And I'll be Port forever
G+G *     FF
Yes it is my lifeblood

These streets they are a part of me

The yin to my yang

The Craig to my Bellamy
G+G *       C majorC
Catch me in the kitchen

I've got cheese I'm melting it

Caerphilly, bread and ham

Hey presto it's a Rarebit
G+G *     FF
Head out to Caerleon

Off-white transit

Febreeze on the dash for the stain where my nan sits
G+G *    C majorC
Out for the big one, sniffin' on the miaow miaow

DJ on the ones and twos, spinnin' Little Bow Wow
G+G *        FF
On the dancefloor raving, pack of 16 Benson

Someone fighting bouncers...turns out it's Gavin Henson
G+G *    C majorC
Big up to Plaid Cymru, and the Welsh Assembly

Big up to Millennium: we don't need no Wembley
G+G *    FF
Keep your Big Apple...

We'll have a tangerine

Bugger of Alicia, Shirley Bassey is our queen
G+G *         A minorAm
Round here we stick together
        G+G
Like birds of a feather...
           E MajorE
Except we're not from Chigwell...

We're from the small Welsh town of...

CHORUS

FF
Newport
G+G              A minorAm
Concrete jumble, nothing in order
           C majorC
Not far from the border....
        FF
When you're in Newport
G+G               A minorAm
Chips and curry makes you feel brand new
          C majorC
Washed down with a Special Brew
        FF
Repeat the word Newport, Newport, Newport


2ND VERSE

         C majorC
Catch me at Gwent Dragons in my fleece watching real sport

Shit, I make the Dragons' fleece more famous than the Argonauts
G*        FF
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+G *      C majorC
Yeah know the D MajorD to the V to the LA

Dad said "Get a job with them ," but Swansea's too far away
G+G *       FF
So look me up on Google -- I'm seven pages in

Was in the local paper, Mam threw it in the bin
G+G *        C majorC
She didn't see the article calling me a rap star

Ripped it into pieces, and used it for the hamster
G+G *    FF
Tom Jones, Steve Jones, Zeta Jones, traffic cones

If you come and visit use the Designated Parking Zones
G+G *        C majorC
There's a snooker hall, see but I'm not a member...

And a lovely shopping centre opened in December
G+G *       A minorAm
So head over the water
      G+G
On the transporter
       E MajorE
Fifty for the toll booth

Male Voice Choir singing out...


CHORUS

FF
Newport
G+G                 A minorAm
Twinned with Guangxi, Province in China
          C majorC
There's no province finer
          FF
Josie D'Arby's from Newport
G+G                 A minorAm
Yes, it's strange, we didn't know either...
       C majorC
Thank you Wikipedia
          FF
Let's say some more Newport, Newport, Newport
