24 Hour Store

G
Late late at night
Bm
24-hour store
C
Ghosts fly up the aisles
           G                D
Across the shining floor
Am
Opening and closing
C
Automatic doors

G
Hands waving mirrors
Bm
Angels fly through lights
C
But the sleepless and lost
           G                D
Push their squeaking carts
Am                              C           G
Down the rows of clothes And see nothing at all

G                            Bm
No, no-one hears the singing bones
           Em              C
And no-one sees the crying ghosts
             G          D
And everyone thinks I'm alone
G
All alone


          G
But under concrete and steel
Bm
Linoleum floors
           C              G            D
There is a fire that will never die
Am             C          G
A golden wheel inside the world

G                 Bm
A golden wheel in plastic and bows
C                               G               D
In particles of light that fall from the sun
Am                 C                  G
A river of candles tumbling in the dark


G                            Bm
No, no-one hears the singing bones
           Em              C
And no-one sees the crying ghosts
             G          D
And everyone thinks I'm alone
G
All alone
