A Surrender into the  D night
A Silently take my  D hand
E Nobody knows whats  D inside us A
D Nobody under- E stands
They  A handed us down a  D dream
To  A live in this lonely  D town
But  E nobody hears the  D music A
D Only the echo of a  E hollow sound
E Where do the  D child- A ren  E go
Between the  D bright  A night and  D darkest  E day
Where do the  D child- A ren  E go
And who's that  D deadly  A piper that  E leads them  A away
Together we make our way
Passengers on a train
Whisper a secret forever
Promises in the rain
We're leaving it all behind
While castles are falling down
We're going where no one can find us
And if there's a heaven we'll find it somehow
Melodica Solo (roughly transcribed for guitar)
