|Em/G Em/G Em/G Em/G|
VERSE 1:
[Em/G]Remember that ni[Am]ght,
White [Cmaj7/G]steps in the mo[Bm7]onlight.[Em/G]
They walked her[Am]e too,
Through empty [Cmaj7/G]playground, this gh[Bm7]ost's tow[B7]n.[Em/G]
Children a[Am]gain on rusting [Cmaj7/G]swings, getting [Bm7]higher,[Em/G]
Sharing a [Am]dream,
On an [Cmaj7/G]Island. It [Bm7]felt [B7]right.
Em* Bm
We lay side by side,
Dm* Am
Between the moon and the tide.
[Cm]Mapping the [Gm]stars for a [A]while.
CHORUS 1:
[Cmaj7/G]Let the night[Dmaj11/G] surround you,[Cmaj7/G]
(We're) [Dmaj11/G]half way to the [Cmaj7/G]stars,
Ebb and [Dmaj11/G]flow[A]
[Cmaj7/G]Let it [Dmaj11/G]go, â??â?[Cmaj7/G]?- feel [Dmaj11/G]her warmth bes[Cmaj7/G]ide you.

VERSE 2:
[Em/G]Remember that ni[Am]ght,
The [Cmaj7/G]warmth and the la[Bm7]ughter[B7].[Em/G]
Candles [Am]burn,
Though the [Cmaj7/G]church was de[Bm7]serted[B].[Em/G]
At dawn we went [Am]down through empty [Cmaj7/G]streets to the [Bm7]harb[B7]our,[Em7]
Dreamers may [Am]leave, but they're [Cmaj7/G]here___ [Bm7]ever[B7]after.
