Em            Am
Remember that night

      Cmaj7/G      Bm7  
White steps in the moonlight

Em               Am
They walked here too

              Cmaj7/G          D       B
Through empty playground, this ghosts' town

Em         Am              
Children again,

           Cmaj7/G        Bm7
on rusting swings getting higher

Em        Am
Sharing a dream,

     Cmaj7/G     D    B
on an island, it felt right


   Em          Bm
We lay side by side

            Dm           Am
Between the moon and the tide

Cm          Gm        A
Mapping the stars for awhile


Em/G
Let the night surround you
We're halfway to the stars
Ebb and flow
Let it go
Feel her warmth beside you

Em            Am
Remember that night

    Cmaj7/G       Bm7  
The warmth and the laughter

Em        Am
  Candles burned

           Cmaj7/G       D  B
Though the church was deserted

Em              Am
At dawn we went down

               Cmaj7/G        Bm7
through empty streets to the harbour

Em           Am
Dreamers may leave,

            Cmaj7/G   D   B
but they're here ever after


Em          Bm
La  La La  (La  La La)

Dm          Am
La  La La  (La  La La)

Cm          Gm          A
La  La La  (La  La La)  La


Em/G
Let the night surround you
We're halfway to the stars
Ebb and Flow
Let it go
Feel her warmth beside you


[2nd guitar solo]
