There Will Be Fireworks - Here is where

^C#mThe city sleeps but we're awake We spirit home before the break ^AOf dawn upon the streets In which we live and love and breathe ^EAnd half the high-rises have turned to dust The Fairfields now are scrap and rust ^BThe sirens sing, the west wind howls What once was here was holy ground ^C#mNot now

^ASo I wonder where you'll sleep tonight And decide it would be best ^ETo stay out late and not come home To wander Kelvingrove alone ^BI'm young enough to still believe Some faded glory might just shelter me

^C#mAnd here is where my whole world turns And here is where my heart returns ^AAnd here is where I've sworn and cursed And here is where I kissed you first ^EIn amber light shot through with rain I swear I don't intend to waste a^B syllable Each word is blessed The truth must blaze through every single breath

^F#mUnbending, stark A lit steeple against unending dark ^EAnd someone sprayed this on the wall: "I love it here" I don't at all

^C#mDo you live for the love you've found? Some sad slow song to lay you down ^AAnd still your weary worried heart Throw light upon your darkest dark ^EThat unsung psalm burst into flame That wild black night that calls your name ^BO river, take my bloodied bones The toll can have my heart to hold

^C#mDo you live for the loves you've lost? Do they linger in your thoughts? ^AAnd ever in your fitful sleeps In your wild and dark imaginings ^EDo you ever really dream of me? And if you did what would that mean? ^BO river, take my bloodied bones The toll can have my heart to hold

^F#mUnbending, stark A lit steeple against unending dark ^EO river, take my bloodied bones The toll can have my heart to hold
