 The night is sinking, and I'm in need of a song

There were birds in the ceiling, talking about feelings all summer long
B               E              C#m
 Celestial bodies beam down on casinos
     E                C#m                   Bbdim
Our fathers still cling to their obsolete ethos

Now that I think of it
I guess that's what we all do
B                          E              C#m
 I wanna build a new house, high atop a mountain

Where you'll lock me in your kindness and never let me out again
