Life In A Northern Town (Extended Vers.) ~ The Dream Academy chords
Start Jamming...
[E]
[A] [E]
[B] Salvation Army back played And the children drank [E] lemonade
[A] And the morning lasted all day, [E] all day And through an open window came
Like a snot train a younger day [F#m] Pushing the [A] town away
[E] Hey ma ma ma Missing Naya Hey ma ma ma hey
[A]
Life in a northern [E] town Hey ma ma ma ma
He sat on a stony ground And he took a cigarette out
[A] And everyone else came down [E] to listen
He said in winter 1963 It felt like the world would [B] freeze
With John F.
Kennedy [E] on the beat of the world
Hey ma ma ma Missing Naya Hey ma ma ma [A] hey
Life in a [E] northern town Hey ma ma ma ma
Hey ma ma ma Missing Naya Hey ma ma ma [A] hey
All the [E] workshop done
Evening turned to day Watched the water [B] roll down the drain
As we followed him down to [E] the station
No he never would've [E] waited in line
See it written in his [G#m] eyes As the train [F#m] rolled [A] out of sight
Ba ba
[E]
Hey ma ma ma Missing Naya Hey ma ma ma hey
[A] [F#] Life in a northern [E] town Hey ma ma ma ma
Hey ma ma ma Missing Naya Hey ma ma ma [F#] hey
Life in a northern [E] town Hey ma ma ma ma
Hey ma ma ma hey
[A] Ma [E]
ma ma
Hey hey hey hey
[A] [E] Ma ma ma
Hey ma ma ma
[A] [E]
Make it easy on yourself
So smile when you're smiling
Ma ma ma
The harder [A] it's been
[E]
[A] [E] Hey ma ma ma ma
Making it easy
Hey ma ma ma ma
Missing Naya Hey ma ma ma hey
[A] So [F#] much
[E] Hey ma ma ma ma Baby
Hey ma ma ma
Missing Naya Hey ma ma ma hey
Life in a northern town
