Life In A Northern Town

• C

Sugarland-Little Big Town-Jake Owens 

Intro: C-F-C 
C 
A Salvation Army band played 

And the children drank lemonade  
                  Dm                    C 
And the morning lasted all day,  - All day 
                              
And through an open window came  
                            
Like Sinatra in a younger day, 
   Dm             F      G7 
Pushing the town away - away  


(Chant)  
C 
hey oh ma ma ma , Into the night  
                     F                       C  
hey oh ma ma ma hey ah, Life in a northern town.  
     
hey ma ma ma  

 C 
They sat on the stoney ground 

And he took a cigarette out  
                        Dm           C 
And everyone else came down  - To listen. 

It was in winter 1963  
                                             
It felt like the world would freeze 
              Dm 
With John F. Kennedy  
F           G7 
And the Beatles  


(Chant)  
C 
hey oh ma ma ma , Into the night  
                     F                       C 
hey oh ma ma ma hey ah, Life in a northern town.  

hey ma ma ma - hey oh ma ma ma , Into the night  
                    F                           C 
hey oh ma ma ma hey ah, They shut the factory down.  
     
hey ma ma ma  

C  
The evening had turned to rain 

Watch the water roll down the drain,  
                    Dm              C  
As we followed him down, To the station 
                            
And though he never would wave goodbye,  

You could see it written in his eyes 
                     Dm      F         G7 
As the train rolled out of sight - Bye-bye.  


(Chant)  
C 
hey oh ma ma ma, Into the night  
                    F                        C 
hey oh ma ma ma hey ah, Life in a northern town.  

hey ma ma ma, Take it easy on your self  

hey oh ma ma ma, Into the night  
                    F                        C 
hey oh ma ma ma hey ah, Life in a northern town.  
  
hey ma ma ma - hey oh ma ma ma, Into the night  
                    F                        C 
Ah hey ma ma ma hey ah, Life in a northern town  

hey ma ma ma - hey oh ma ma ma, Into the Night  
                 F                         C 
hey ma ma ma hey ah, Life in a Northern Town  

hey ma ma ma
