Em7/G Am C/G
At night they would go walking
Em Am
'til the breaking of the day
Am C/G Em
The morning is for sleeping
Am C/G
Through the dark streets, they'd go searching
Em Am
to see God on their own way
Am C/G Em
Save the night time for your weeping
Am
Your weeping...
C/G Em7/G Am
Singing la la la la la la la ley
C/G Em7/G Am
And the night over London lay
Am C/G
So we rode down to the river
Em Am
where Victorian ghosts pray
Am C/G Em
for their curses to be broken
Am C/G
We go underneath the arches
Em Am
where the witches are in there saying
Am C/G Em
"There are ghost towns in the ocean"
Am
The ocean...
C/G Em7/G Am
Singing la la la la la la la ley
C/G Em7/G Am
And the night over London lay
Am C/G Em Am

Am C/G
God is in the houses
Em Am
and God is in my head
Am C/G Em
And all the cemeteries of London
Am C/G
I see God come in my garden
Em Am
But I don't know what he said
Am C/G Em
For my heart, it wasn't open
Am
Not open...
C/G Em7/G Am
Singing la la la la la la la ley
C/G Em7/G Am
And the night over London lay
C/G Em7/G Am
Singing la la la la la la la ley
C/G Em7/G Am
( Am )
There's no light over London today
