[Verse 1]
Em G D Am
At night they would go walking ‘till the breaking of the day,
Em G D Am
The morning is for sleeping…
Em G D Am
Through the dark streets they go searching to see God in their own way,
Em G D Am
Save the nighttime for your weeping…
Em
Your weeping…
[Chorus]
G D Am
Singing la lalalalala la lé…
Em D Em
And the night over London, hey…
[Verse 2]
Em G D Am
So we rode down to the river where the toiling ghosts spring,
Em G D Am
For their curses to be broken…
Em G D Am
We’d go underneath the arches where the witches are in the saying,
Em G D Am
There are ghost towns in the ocean…
Em
The ocean…
[Chorus]
G D Am
Singing la lalalalala la lé…
Em D Em
And the night over London, ey…
[Verse 3]
Em D Em
God is in the houses and God is in my head… and all the cemeteries in
G D Am
London…
Em G D Am
I see God come in my garden, but I don’t know what he said,
Em G D Am
For my heart it wasn’t open….
Em
Not open…
[Chorus]
G D Am
Singing la lalalalala la lé…
Em D Em
And the night over London, ey…
G D Am
Singing la lalalalala la lé…
Em D Em
There’s no light over London today…
