Sugarland - Life In A Northern Town

(Feat. Little Big Town & Jake Owens)
From "Love On The Inside" (2008)

INTRO:   [C]  [F]   [C]

[C]A Salvation Army band played and the children drank lemonade 
And the morning [Dm]lasted all day,  - All [C]day
And through an open window came like Sinatra in a younger day,
Push[Dm]ing the town a[F]way - a[G7]way

[C]hey oh ma ma ma , Into the night 
hey oh ma ma ma hey [F]ah, Life in a northern [C]town
hey ma ma ma 

[C]They sat on the stoney ground and he took a cigarette out 
And everyone else came [Dm]down  - To [C]listen
It was in winter 1963, It felt like the world would freeze
With John F. [Dm]Kennedy [F]And the Beat[G7]les 

[C]hey oh ma ma ma , Into the night 
hey oh ma ma ma hey [F]ah, Life in a northern [C]town
hey ma ma ma - hey oh ma ma ma , Into the night 
hey oh ma ma ma hey [F]ah, They shut the factory [C]down
hey ma ma ma 

[C]The evening had turned to rain watch the water roll down the drain, 
As we followed him [Dm]down, To the sta[C]tion
And though he never would wave goodbye
You could see it written in his eyes
As the train rolled [Dm]out of [F]sight - Bye-[G7]bye

[C]hey oh ma ma ma, Into the night 
hey oh ma ma ma hey [F]ah, Life in a northern [C]town
hey ma ma ma, Take it easy on your self 
hey oh ma ma ma, Into the night 
hey oh ma ma ma hey [F]ah, Life in a northern [C]town
hey ma ma ma - hey oh ma ma ma, Into the night 
Ah hey ma ma ma hey [F]ah, Life in a northern [C]town
hey ma ma ma - hey oh ma ma ma, Into the Night 
hey ma ma ma hey [F]ah, Life in a Northern [C]Town 
hey ma ma ma
