The Beatles – Only a Northern Song Song Lyrics

About The Beatles: The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. They became the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed act in the history of popular music. Their best-known lineup consisted of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Rooted in skiffle and 1950s rock and roll, they later utilised several genres, ranging from pop ballads to psychedelic rock, often incorporating classical and other elements in innovative ways. In the early 1960s, their enormous popularity first emerged as “Beatlemania”, but as their songwriting grew in sophistication, they came to be perceived by many fans and cultural observers as an embodiment of the ideals shared by the era’s sociocultural revolutions.

Lyrics:

If you’re listening to this song
You may think the chords are going wrong
But they’re not
We just wrote them like that

If you’re listening late at night
You may think the band are not quite right
But they are
The just play it like that

And it doesn’t really matter what chords I play
What words I say
Or time of day it is
As it’s only a Northern song

It doesn’t really matter what clothes I wear
What words I pair
Or if my hair is brown
‘Cause it’s only a Northern song

If you think the harmony
Is a little dull and out of key
You’re correct
‘Cause there’s nobody there

And it’s only there’s no one there
