Only a northern song    (midi)

   …. G                                                                 

1.          If you're listening to this song,

                                                               Am

    you may think the chords are going wrong,

                       D                                     C

    but they're not, we just wrote it like that.

   G

2.    When you're listening late at night,

                                                                Am

    you may think the band are not quite right,

                   D                                     C

    but they are, they just play it like that.

          D                                        F

    It doesn't really matter what chords I play,

               E                   Am                E             C         G            D

    what words I say or time of day it is, as it's only a Northern song.

+ (distorted) instrumental = verse 2, lines 1 - 3

          D                                       F

    It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear,

          E                Am                  E                      C         G            D

    or how I fare or if my hair is brown, when it's only a Northern song.

     G

3.       If you think the harmony

                                           Am

    is a little dark and out of key,

                     D                               C

    you're correct, there's nobody there.

+ D - F - E - Am - E

             C                      G            D

   And I told you there's no one there.

+ (distorted) instrumental = verse 3 ….

(orig. = capo 2nd)    (The Beatles)
