[Eb] [Bb]
[Fm] [Bb]
[Cm] [Bb]
[C] [Bb] Bella Donna's [Eb] on the high street
[Bb]
Breast up [Eb] on A off B
[Bb] And the stars are just [Eb] the sideshows
[Bb]
Victoria on her [Eb] soul [Bb] clothes
Yeah she got this skirt so tight now
[Bb]
She wanna travel [Eb] light now
She wanna turn up all her roots [Eb] now
[Bb]
She got that turn up on her boots now
[Bb] [Eb] She thinks she's tough
She ain't no English [F] woman
[Bb]
[Eb] He's a blind singer
He's seen enough [Bb] and he knows
[Fm] Do a song about [Eb] a long gone [Bb] Irish girl
[Fm] But I got [Eb] one for you
[Bb] My Porto bello bell
She sees a man up on [Eb] his back there
[Bb] Escaping from a [Eb] suck dad
[Bb] Bella Donna [Eb]
lingers
[Eb] [Bb] Her gloves they got no [Cm] fingers
Blind man he's singing the [Eb] Irish
[Bb] Got his money in a ding [Eb] dish
He just took a call on a serenade
[Bb] Once upon a time he could [Eb] have made her
She thinks she's tough
She ain't no English woman
[Eb] Blind singer
He's seen enough and [Bb] he knows
[Fm] Do a song about a long gone Irish [Bb] girl
[Fm] But I got one for you
[Bb] Porto bello [G] bell
[Bb] Yes and these fair boys [Eb] are honking
[Bb] And the [Eb] barricades are squawking
[Bb] And all this crooked [Eb] paper I know
[Bb] She get the crying [Eb] out of the window
[Bb] And she get the wrecking [Gm] rumble
[Bb] Bella Donna's [Eb] in the jungle
[Bb] But she [C] ain't no [Eb] garden flower
[Bb] There ain't no distress [Eb] in the town at [Bb] all
[Eb] Bella Donna walks
Bella Donna taking [Bb] control
She don't care if that's a window box
You're brought in a hole
Sing
[Fm] a song [Eb] about a long gone [Bb] Irish girl
But I
[Fm] got one [Eb] for you
[Bb] Porto bello bell
Play one, Al
