[Verse 1]
D5 D5/C D5
At night they would go walking till the break in the day
D5 D5/C D5
The morning is for sleeping
D5 D5/C D5
Through the dark streets they go searching to see God in their own way
D5 D5/C D5
Save the nighttime for you weeping
D5
Your weeping
[Chorus]
F C Dm
Singing la la la la la la lay
F Am Dm
And the night over London hey
[Verse 2]
Dm F Am Dm
So we rode down to the river where the toiling ghosts spring
Dm 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
Dm F Am
There are ghost towns in the ocean
Dm
The ocean
[Chorus]
F C Dm
Singing la la la la la la lay
F Am Dm
And the night over London hey
Dm F Am Dm
Dm F Am
Dm F Am Dm

[Verse 3]
Dm F Am Dm
God in the houses, and god is in my head
Dm 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
Dm F Am
For my heart it wasn't open
Dm
Not open
[Chorus]
F C Dm
Singing la la la la la la lay
F Am Dm
And the night over London hey
F C Dm
Singing la la la la la la lay
F Am Dm
