Em B5 G D5
Em B5 G D5
         This night will

Verse 1:
Em  B5 G        D5
fall   like any other,
Em   B5       G         D5      Em   B5 G        D5
  Daylight subsides and shadows crawl   out from under,
Cadd9         Dsus2             Em   B5 G      D5
Black corners hiding something, stars,  all so restless,
Em   B5           G    D5
  Cracked windows open wide
Em        B5     G           D5
Dead-bolt turns, doors creak open,
Cadd9          Dsus2              Em
With stars and moonlight there to guide.

Chorus:
Em                             Cadd9
Come raise your lantern to the sky,
       D               Em
Can we illuminate this night?
                                   Cadd9
We'll dance like heathens 'round a flame,
                D             Em   B5 G D5
While the world sleeps we are awake.

Em B5 G

Verse 2:
               Em    B5   G       D5
The black bird calls,  it sings a chorus,
Em      B5          G       D5              Em  B5 G       D5
  While the cavalry swells, the flames grow tall   right before us.
Cadd9           Dsus2            Em     B5      G     D5
  As drums keep pounding and the masses now are fusing,
Em     B5          G      D5
Bodies pressed and tangled,
      Em    B5    G5     D5
As we revel in confusion,
    Cadd9       Dsus2
Our inhibitions thrown into the fire.

Chorus:
Em                             Cadd9
Come raise your lantern to the sky,
       D               Em
Can we illuminate this night?
                                   Cadd9
We'll dance like heathens 'round a flame,
                D             Em
While the world sleeps we are awake.

Verse 3:
Em                 D5 Edim
  Here in the dark we are safe from the judgement,
D5 A                 D5    G         D
     Now arm in arm locked tight so no one gets in
Em                 D5 E7
The Heaven-sent say: "child, you are hellbent"
D5 A                            G      Dsus2              Em  Em7 Em
    But Hell is not where we're going, Hell's where we've been

Chorus:
Em                  Em7 Em     C Cadd9 C
Come raise your lantern to the sky,
           D              Em Em7 Em
And let's illuminate this night,
Em                    Em7 Em         C Cadd9 C
We'll dance like heathens 'round a flame,
          D                   Em
While the world sleeps we are awake.

Em                        Cadd9
Raise your lantern to the sky,
          D               Em
And let's illuminate this night,
                                       Cadd9
We'll dance like heathens 'round the flames,
                D             Em
While the world sleeps we are awake.
