D#m                    F#
At night they would go walking
          C#              D#m
till the breaking of the day
D#m                  F#   A#m
The morning is for sleeping
Through the dark streets they go searching
to see God in their own way
Save the nighttime for you weeping
D#m
Your weeping

Chorus:
        F#       G#       D#m
Singing la la la la la la eh
        F#         A#m     D#m
And the night over London lay

So we rode down to the river
Where Victorian ghosts pray
For their curses to be broken
We go wander 'neath the arches
Where the witches are and they say
"There are ghost towns in the ocean"
The ocean

Chorus

God is in the houses
And God is in my head
And all the cemeteries of London
I see God come in my garden
But I don’t know what he said
For my heart it wasn’t open
Not open

Chorus:
Singing la-la-la-la-la-la-lay
And the night over London lay
Singing la-la-la-la-la-la-lay
There’s no light over London today
