[Verse]
D                     G           A
Cannons roared in the valley they thundered
A         (Bm)            D
While the guns lit up the night
D                  G          A
Then it rained and both sides wondered
A      (Bm)                D
Who is wrong and who is right
D                  G          A
On the wire like a ragged old scarecrow
A      (Bm)                D
Bloody hands and broken back
D                      G          A
When they fire see him pirouette solo
A                   (Bm)  D
Jump in time to the rat a tat

[Chorus]
D                        A      G
What a night though it's one of seven
D                    A       G
What a night for the dancing dead
D                  A         G
What a night to be called to heaven
D                 A         G
What a picture to fill your head

[Verse]
D                 G        A
By the wall in a silouette standing
A                 (Bm)    D
Through a flash of sudden light
D                  G          A
Cigarette from his mouth just hanging
A                   (Bm)           D
Paper square to his heart pinned tight

[Interlude]

[Verse]
Oooh..
D            G         A
Gather round reluctant marksmen
A      (Bm)               D
One of them to take his life
D               G          A
With a smile he gives them pardon
A          (Bm)                 D
Leaves the dark and takes the light

[Chorus]
D                        A      G
What a night though it's one of seven
D                    A       G
What a night for the dancing dead
D                  A         G
What a night to be called to heaven
D                 A         G
What a picture to fill your head (To fill your head)

[Verse]
D                   G        A
They dispatch their precious cargo
A         (Bm)               D
And knock him back right off his feet
D                 G      A
And they pray may no one follow
A       (Bm)             D
Better still to face the beast

D                  G        A
When the field has become a garden
A       (Bm)               D
And the wall has stood the test
D                     G        A
Children play and the dogs run barking
A         (Bm)               D
Who would think or who would guess

[Chorus]
D                        A      G
What a night though it's one of seven (les morts dansant)
D                    A       G
What a night for the dancing dead
D                  A         G
What a night to be called to heaven
D                 A         G
What a picture to fill your head (TO fill your head)
