    Dm                  F                 Am              Dm
At night they would go walking till the breaking of the day,
                     F         Am
The morning is for sleeping.
             Dm                     F                Am               Dm
Through the dark streets they'd go searching to see God in their own way.
                             F          Am
Save the nighttime for your weeping!
      Dm
Your weeping.
        Dm        C          Dm       
Singing la la la la la la lay,
         F          Am         Dm
And the night over London, hey.



      Dm                F               Am             Dm
So we rode down to the river where the toiling ghosts spring
                         F       Am
For their curses to be broken.
         Dm             F                 Am                 Dm
We'll go underneath the arches where the witches are in the sea -
                             F      Am
There are ghost towns in the ocean,
    Dm
The ocean.
         Dm       C          Dm       
Singing la la la la la la lay.
         F          Am          Dm
And the night over London, hey.

 Dm         F           Am           Dm
God in the houses, and God is in my head,
                           F        Am
And all the cemeteries in London.
       Dm             F             Am                     Dm
I see God come in my garden, but I don't know what he'd say
                       F     Am
For my heart it wasn't open,
    Dm
Not open
         Dm       C          Dm       
Singing la la la la la la lay,
        F          Am        Dm
And the night over London, hey.
         Dm       C          Dm       
Singing la la la la la la lay,
           F          Am         Dm
There's no light over London today.
