Lyrics & guitar chords:

A                  E
They kicked me out of Anglesey
E                  A
Even though I’m half-Welsh, they couldn’t see
A                  D
Past my inability
D       A           E       A
To pronounce Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrnllantysiliogogogoch

(NB This is a slightly mispronounced version of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, the ‘drobwll’ is missing)

A                  E
Born to a Welsh father, and an English mother
E                  A
Everybody in the village was related to each other
A                  D
Hey girl, don’t you realise he’s practically your brother?
D       A           E       A
And four out of five were called Jones

Bm                  A
And the local girls had no time for me
Bm                  A
I was left at home watching S4C
Bm                  A
Irish stew yet again for tea
E                  E
But it’s beautiful

A                  E
They wouldn’t let me join the Young Farmer’s club
E                  A
’cause I wore Converse and not Wellies when I was down the pub
A                  D
Like all the other young men, I had a sheep I loved
D       A           E       A
They didn’t like it ’cause my sheep was black

Kazoo solo

A                  E
They kicked me out of Anglesey
E                  A
Even though I’m half-Welsh, they couldn’t see
A                  D
Past my inability
D       A           E       A
To pronounce Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrnllantysiliogogogoch
