 Gm          Gm         Dm                Dm
Starlight, starbright twinkling peacefully
           Gm   Gm            Dm  Dm
While the pack wairs for the kill
 Gm          Gm           Dm           Dm
Susan works late and she walks by the river
     A#        A#          A7   A
The waters so deep and so still


PD-C HORUS:
 D#          D#           Gm    Gm
Hungry eyes flash in the shadows
  F                C             G    G
Blades click and shine in their hands
Gm          Gm             Dm    Dm
Run Suzanne run can't you feel it
    Gm            Gm       A7  A
The evening makes angry demands


CHORUS:
 D    A        Bm   D
Take back the night

To walk the streets when we choooooose

The park is now full of sunshine and laughter
 Gm         Gm         Dm  Dm
Susan lies hidden and cold
   Gm            Gm      Dm      Dm
A child playing chases a red ball
       A#                     A#           A7  A
Momma someone's sleeping she won't move at all


PD-C HORUS:
            D#         D#           Gm     Gm
And as the ambulance screams her to nowhere
F                  C           G  G
No one dares looks under the sheet
 Gm        Gm          Dm    Dm
Once again evening is falling
        Gm       Gm           A7   A
With a taste of blood on its teeth


CHORUS:
       D    A        Bm   D
Let's take back the night

To walk the streets when we choooooose

And make it safe for everyone to use


VERSE:
     Gm            Gm      Dm    Dm
The church is now quiet in memory
     Gm      Gm           Dm   Dm
Her parents pray to understand
   Gm         Gm          Dm   Dm
A rage grows deep in her lover
   A#                A#             A7  A
Determined that the senseless shall end


PD-C HORUS:
    D#           D#              Gm    Gm
Now out on the street there's a service
      F            C           G   G
With thousands of candles for light
Gm         Gm         Dm     Dm
Arm in arm women are marching
     Gm             Gm            A7   A
With men they sing take back the night
