There is a riff in the second and third chorus (marked with a *):
Goodnight
To the city and the sea
To the strangers in the street
Goodnight
To the ghost out in the hall
The paint peeling off the wall
Goodnight
Sometimes I stand between the sidewalk and the sky
And just stare into the clouds as they pass by
You have to leave the ground to learn to fly
x2
Goodnight
To the TV and the clocks
To the rain that never stops
Goodnight
To everyone I know
Shut my eyes and let 'em go
Goodnight
Sometimes I stand between the sidewalk and the sky *
And just stare into the clouds as they pass by
You have to leave the ground to learn to fly
(Violin Solo)
G then switch between C and Am for the rest
There is something beautiful dying every day
And for the first time in my life I'm not afraid
'Cause there's nothing in this world that doesn't change
Goodnight
To the person I have been
To the place that I am in
Goodnight
Tomorrow, hello to the sun
Are your ready? Here I come
Goodnight
Sometimes I stand between the sidewalk and the sky *
And just stare into the clouds as they pass by
You have to leave the ground to learn to fly
You have to leave the ground to learn to fly
Enjoy!
