[Intro]
D C G D C G
[Chorus]
G F Oh to live on Sugar Mountain G F With the barkers and the colored balloons G F You can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain Dm Though you're thinking that G You're leavin' there too soon Dm G You're leavin' there too soon
[Verse 1]
Dm It's so noisy at the fair C G And all your friends are there Dm C And the candy floss you had G And your mother and your dad
[Chorus]
G F Oh to live on Sugar Mountain G F With the barkers and the colored balloons G F You can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain Dm Though you're thinking that G You're leavin' there too soon Dm G You're leavin' there too soon
[Verse 2]
Dm There's a girl just down the aisle C G Oh to turn and see her smile Dm C You can hear the words she wrote G As you read the hidden note
[Chorus]
G F Oh to live on Sugar Mountain G F With the barkers and the colored balloons G F You can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain Dm Though you're thinking that G You're leavin' there too soon Dm G You're leavin' there too soon
[Verse 3]
Dm Now you're underneath the stairs C G And you're giving back some glares Dm C To the people that you met G And it's your first cigarette
[Chorus]
G F Oh to live on Sugar Mountain G F With the barkers and the colored balloons G F You can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain Dm Though you're thinking that G You're leavin' there too soon Dm G You're leavin' there too soon
[Interlude]

[Verse 4]
Dm Now you say you're leaving home C G And you want to be alone Dm C Ain't it funny how you feel G When you're findin' out it's real?
[Out-Chorus]
G F Oh to live on Sugar Mountain G F With the barkers and the colored balloons G F You can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain Dm Though you're thinking that G You're leavin' there too soon Dm G You're leavin' there too soon
