[Intro]
| D |


[Verse 1]
            G          A        D
It's just a northern industrial town
          G            A           
The front doors of the houses open 
D
into the street
           G              A       
There's no room for front gardens,
        D
 just a two-up, two-down
     G          A        D
In a northern industrial town


[Verse 2]
            G             A   
And you can see the green hills 
             D
'cross the rooftops
      G            A              
And a fresher wind blows past the 
D
end of our block
       G            A        
In the evenings the mist comes 
  D
rolling on down

       G          A        D
Into a northern industrial town


[Verse 3]
            G        A             
And there's only two teams in this 
D
town
        G           A          D
And you must follow one or the other
       G             A             
Let us win, let them lose, not the 
D
other way round
     G          A        D
In a northern industrial town


[Verse 4]
        G                 A       
And the streetlights look pretty 
   D
and bright
         G           A            
From the tops of the hills that 
   D
rise dark in the night
      G               A       
If it weren't for the rain, you 
        D
might never come down
        G          A        D
To your northern industrial town


[Verse 5]
       G           A              
And on payday they tear the place 
D
down
       G            A          D
With a pint in your hand and a bash 
'em out band
            G            A        
Sure they'd dance to the rhythm of
     D
 the rain falling down
     G          A        D
In a northern industrial town


[Verse 6]
            G          A       D
And there's plenty of artists around
G               A            D
Painters, steal cars, poets, nicked 
guitars
             G          A         
'Cause we're out of the black and 
      D
we're into the red
   G            A      D
So give us this day our daily bread
     G          A        D
In a northern industrial town


[Verse 7]
             G        A      D
But it's not Leeds or Manchester
G          A             D
Liverpool, Sheffield nor Glasgow
         G            A           
It's not Newcastle-on-Tyne ... 
  D
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
