(addG)

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain

(addG)

with the barkers and the colored balloons,

(addG)

You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain

tho' you're thinkin' that you're leavin' there too soon,

you're leavin' there too soon.

(addG)

It's so noisy at the fair

but all your friends are there

(addG)

And the candy floss you had

and your mother and your dad.

(addG)

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain

(addG)

with the barkers and the colored balloons,

(addG)

You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain

tho' you're thinkin' that you're leavin' there too soon,

you're leavin' there too soon.

(addE)

(addG)

There's a girl just down the aisle,

oh, to turn and see her smile.

(addG)

You can hear the words she wrote

as you read the hidden note.

(addG)

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain

(addG)

with the barkers and the colored balloons,

(addG)

You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain

tho' you're thinkin' that you're leavin' there too soon,

you're leavin' there too soon.

(addE)

(addG)

Now you're underneath the stairs

and you're givin' back some glares

(addG)

To the people who you met

and it's your first cigarette.

(addG)

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain

(addG)

with the barkers and the colored balloons,

(addG)

You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain

tho' you're thinkin' that you're leavin' there too soon,

you're leavin' there too soon.

(addG)

Now you say you're leavin' home

'cause you want to be alone.

(addG)

Ain't it funny how you feel

When you're findin' out it's real?

(addG)

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain

(addG)

with the barkers and the colored balloons,

(addG)

You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain

tho' you're thinkin' that you're leavin' there too soon,

you're leavin' there too soon.

(addG)

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain

(addG)

with the barkers and the colored balloons,

(addG)

You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain

tho' you're thinkin' that you're leavin' there too soon,
