[G]
[E]
[B] [A] [E]
[B] The Salvation Army band came
The children drank [E] lemonade
[A] And the morning lasted [E] all day
And through an [Abm] open [E] window came
Like Sinatra in a younger day
[Gbm] Pushing the town [A] away [Abm] Ah
[E]
[Abm] [E] Hey-oh, ma-ma-ma
It's night out
Hey-oh, ma-ma-ma
Hey [A]-oh
Life in a novel [E] time
Hey-oh, 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
Like the world would freeze
[A] Would John F.
Kennedy
[B] [E] And the Beatles Yeah, yeah
Ah hey, ma-ma-ma
It's night out
Hey-oh, ma-ma-ma Hey [A]-oh
Life in a novel [E] time
Hey-oh, ma-ma-ma Hey-oh
Life in a novel time Hey [A]-oh
All the [E] work's shut down
Evening turned to rain
Watched the water roll down the drain
As we [B] followed him down
[E] To the [B] station
[E]
[Abm] [E] No, he [B] never would [E] wave goodbye
You could see [B] it written [E] in his [Abm] eyes
As the [Gbm] train rolled [A] out of sight
Bye
[Gbm] [E] Coming in the night
Hey-oh, ma-ma-ma Hey [A]-oh
Life in a [E] novel time
Hey-oh, ma-ma-ma
Hey-oh
Life in a [A] novel
[E] time Hey-oh
All [A] the
[E] work's shut down
Evening turned to rain
No, he never would wave goodbye
You could see it written in his eyes
I'm a mama, this is your night
I'm a mama, [A]
[E] [B] baby
[E] I'm a mama, this is your night
I'm a mama, baby
[A] [E]
