Verse 
CShe’s gGot Fa place within the woods
Where she Cswings beneath that Ghouse in the Ftrees
CShGe got Fway with animals
And iCnvites me Galong to get Ffree
There’s an Carmy on Gmen who’d Fshoot for her
Even gCoddess’s wGatch when she Fmoves
CFrieGnds Fget us high and something opens up the sky 
And filCls uGs with Fnothing to loose
Chorus
And Awe’Gve Fnever been in this place before
No not Aas it Gis right Fnow
And we Amay never Gknow what this Fnight is for 
So for Anow well Gjust sit Faround
(Same chords as last verse)
He’s got a way of lingering
Like a ghost that just won’t go away
He’s got a place within the wind 
He’s around but I know won’t stay
There’s an army of stars that crash the night
 They would burn but in the still it is cold
We get the gods to come and sit and take with us
We were bruised were screwed we were bold 
(Same as last Chorus)
And we’ve never been in this place before
No not as it is right now
And we may never know what this night is for so for now well just sit around
Yea for now well just sit around
Cause we’ve never been in this pace before no not as it is right know
And we may never know this life and love and living is for so for now well just sit around

Verse

C G F

She’s got a place within the woods

C G F

Where she swings beneath that house in the trees

C G F

She got way with animals

C G F

And invites me along to get free

C G F

There’s an army on men who’d shoot for her

C G F

Even goddess’s watch when she moves

C G F

Friends get us high and something opens up the sky

C G F

And fills us with nothing to loose

Chorus

A G F

And we’ve never been in this place before

A G F

No not as it is right now

A G F

And we may never know what this night is for

A G F

So for now well just sit around

(Same chords as last verse)

We get the gods to come and sit and take with us

We were bruised were screwed we were bold

And we may never know this life and love and living is for so for now well just sit around
