VERES 1
********
A minorAm
Have you ever been to north point
DmDm A minorAm
To spend your time and pray
DmDm A minorAm DmDm
The prison walls are dark and cold and grey
A minorAm
The writing on the wall at north point
DmDm A minorAm
Speaks to a silent room
DmDm A minorAm DmDm
They shut the bars down, leave you to the gloom
-------------------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
Bb majorBb C majorC
how could we get any closer, so high is the wire
FF
and the guards won`t listen
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm
they won`t believe me

Bb majorBb C majorC
and then it all came back
FF
somewhere far above, has a new day risen
Bb majorBb C majorC DmDm
way beyond the searchlight, comes alive, comes alive

VERSE 2
********
A minorAm
Then on a bright day at north point
DmDm A minorAm
The gate was open wide
DmDm A minorAm DmDm
They chanced to look at what was inside

[------------------]
A minorAm
There were a million stars at north point
DmDm A minorAm
And from the silent tomb
DmDm A minorAm
They took it to the heart,
DmDm
And left for the moon
