The Night Sky
Keane
A
A Bm7
One day I will be
C7M Bm7
Back in our old street
A Bm7
Safe from the noise that's
C7M Bm7
Falling around me
A D9
And we'll release this town from the people who are
A D9
Trying to knock it down and
E Bm7
Then only city lights will brighten the night sky and
A D9
There will be no sound
A Bm7
Open the bars and
C7M Bm7
Open the markets
A Bm7
Open the banks and
C7M Bm7
Open the churches
A D9
And we'll release this town from the people who are
A D9
Trying to knock it down and
E Bm7
Then only city lights will brighten the night sky and
A D9
There will be no sound
Ponte
G A
We've been cowering so long
D9 G
Oh what I would give
G A
I'm so little
D9 G
but oh what I will give
Bm7 E
To stand at the bus stop
A/C# D9
Or browse in a bookshop
Bm7 E
To sleep and always be still
A D9
And we'll release this town from the people who are
A D9
Trying to knock it down and
E Bm7
then only city lights will brighten the night sky and
A D9
I will be set free from the people who are and
A D9
Trying to bury me
E Bm7
Then only fireworks will light the sky at night for
A D9
All the world can see
A D9
E Bm7
