A Salvation Army band played
And the children drank lemonade

And the morning lasted all day, - All day
And through an open window came
Like Sinatra in a younger day,

Pushing the town away - away

They sat on the stoney ground
And he took a cigarette out
Dm C
And everyone else came down - To listen.
It was in winter 1963
It felt like the world would freeze
Dm
With John F. Kennedy
F G7
And the Beatles
(Chant)

C
The evening had turned to rain
Watch the water roll down the drain,
Dm C
As we followed him down, To the station
And though he never would wave goodbye,
You could see it written in his eyes
Dm F G7
As the train rolled out of sight - Bye-bye.
(Chant)
