QUEEN OF PORTLAND STREET - Matt Mays
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: ADalziel
This was an older matt mays song that was called G And Me that was recently re-recorded.
couldn't find any tabs for it and the lyrics people have been submitting are terrible,
this is my attempt at both.
Tuning: Standard
Intro starts off with Em, G and C chords along with this riff..

VERSE:
It was that l[G]ife changing song on that wh[C]ite cass[G]ette
A melod[G]y I'll ne[C]ver for[G]get
Get m[G]e a triple triple and a[C] BCD[G]
The go[G]od times will b[C]e on m[G]e
CHORUS:
[Em]Throw in the s[Bm]hifter 1, [C]2 and [G]3
[Em]Find me the qu[G]een of Por[C]tland s[G]treet
[Em]Out in the fiv[Bm]e runner o[C]ut in th[G]e rain
[Em]Me and [G]G chasing[C] hurr[G]icanes
(repeat the intro riff)
VERSE:
[G]Come on Lanny cut [C]me a [G]deal
[G]I work so hard and I [C]never st[G]eal
And the[G] 827 punched o[C]ut my l[G]ights
D[G]own at Rudy's last S[C]aturday[G] night
[G]I know this road like the b[C]ack of my [G]hand
From the d[G]onair temple to the [C]L-town [G]sand
Me and [G]G will meet you down i[C]n the du[G]nes
With the m[G]oon and the tunes yeah we'll [C]be there s[G]oon
CHORUS

Go back to main part with a sweet harmonica solo, then repeat the chorus twice.
End on:
