Northern Industrial Town

| D | G A D It's just a northern industrial town G A D The front doors of the houses open into the street G A D There's no room for front gardens, just a two-up, two-down G A D In a northern industrial town G A D And you can see the green hills 'cross the rooftops G A D And a fresher wind blows past the end of our block G A D In the evenings the mist comes rolling on down G A D Into a northern industrial town G A D And there's only two teams in this town G A D And you must follow one or the other G A D Let us win, let them lose, not the other way round G A D In a northern industrial town G A D And the streetlights look pretty and bright G A D From the tops of the hills that rise dark in the night G A D If it weren't for the rain, you might never come down G A D To your northern industrial town G A D And on payday they tear the place down G A D With a pint in your hand and a bash 'em out band G A D Sure they'd dance to the rhythm of the rain falling down G A D In a northern industrial town G A D And there's plenty of artists around G A D Painters, steal cars, poets, nicked guitars G A D 'Cause we're out of the black and we're into the red G A D So give us this day our daily bread G A D In a northern industrial town G A D But it's not Leeds or Manchester G A D Liverpool, Sheffield nor Glasgow G A D It's not Newcastle-on-Tyne ... it's Belfast G A D It's just a northern industrial town G A D Merry Christmas, war is over G A D In a northern industrial town
