Verse
B5 B5/A B5
At night they would go walking till the break in the day
B5 B5/A B5
The morning is for sleeping
B5 B5/A B5
Through the dark streets they go searching to see God in their own way
B5 B5/A B5
Save the nighttime for you weeping
B5
Your weeping

And the night over London hey
[Verse 2]
Bm D F#m Bm
So we rode down to the river where the toiling ghosts spring
Bm D F#m
For their curses to be broken
Bm D F#m Bm
We'll go underneath the arches where the witches are in the sea
Bm D F#m
There are ghost towns in the ocean
Bm
The ocean
[Chorus]

Singing la la la la la la lay

[Verse 3]
Bm D F#m Bm
God in the houses, and god is in my head
Bm D F#m
And all the cemeteries in London
Bm D F#m Bm
I see god come in my garden, but I don't know what he'd say
Bm D F#m
For my heart it wasn't open
Bm
Not open
[Chorus]
D A Bm
Singing la la la la la la lay
D F#m Bm
And the night over London hey
D A Bm
Singing la la la la la la lay
D F#m Bm
There's no light over London today
