Night Of The Swallow Chords by Kate Bush

[Intro]
B A Bm     A                    
■ ■ ■  The night doesn't like it
G               Bm               B          Gbm
Looks just like your face on the moon to me ■  
                G     
And I won't let you do
B                  
What you want to do
Gbm                 G  
It's funny how even now
Gbm                
■   You're laughing
E               B    
I won't let you do it


[Verse]
       A               A7  A   
If you go I'll let the law know
G                                 B               
And they'll head you off when you touch the ground
A                   G                
Ooh please don't go through with this
                 B          
I don't like the sound of it
     A         G       
It's funny how even now
Gb7          Gbm 
You're miles away
  E                  
I won't let you do it
                Gbm E   
I won't let you do  ■ it
            Gbm    E            G 
I won't let you go through with it
               A        B
Meet them over at Dover ■
G           D         B7   
■ I'll just pilot the motor
G         Asus4          Bm7  
Take them ■     over the water
B7 B G A
■  ■ ■ ■


[Chorus]
A                 
With a hired plane
Bm     A     G        
And no names mentioned
A                                
Tonight's the night of the flight
Bm         B    A
Before you know ■
     A                
I'll be over the water
G             
Like a swallow
A              
There's no risk
Bm   A                   G        
I'll whisk them up in no moonlight
           A           
And though pigs can fly
Bm                   
They'll never find us
A                  
Posing as the night
    Bm                  Gbm     G A
And I'm home before the morning ■ ■


[Verse]
B    Bsus4 A Bsus4 A       G      
■ In Malta ■ ■     catch a swallow
                                  B    Bsus4
For all of the guilty to let them free ■    
E              G     
Wings fill the window
                  B     Gbm7
And they beat and bleed ■   
     A        Gbm7             G   
They hold the sky on the other side
   Gbm         E
Of borderlines ■
E                    
I won't let you do it
            Gbm    E 
I won't let you do it
            Gbm    E              
I won't let you go through with it
G         A       B     G
Meet them over at Dover ■
     A          B7       
I'll just pilot the motor
B G         Asus4    B7 G    
■ Take them over the ■  water
       A                 D     A B
Like a swallow flying to Malta ■ ■
G        A     B    
■ With a hired plane
       A              
And no names mentioned
G                          A     
Tonight's the night of the flight
B          A   
Before you know
                 Bm   
I'll be over the water
Gbm    G      
Like a swallow
A          Bm  
There's no risk
                   A     G        
I'll whisk them up in no moonlight
    A                  
And though pigs can fly
        B            
They'll never find us
A                  
Posing as the night
             Gbm    G   A      
And I'm home before the morning
A              
Give me a break
    Bm        
Ooh let me try
     A               G   
Give me something to show
                 G   
For my miserable life
A                
Something to take
          B             Bm   
Would you break even my wings
       A       Bm G
Like a swallow ■  ■
A                 
With a hired plane
Bm     A     G        
And no names mentioned
              A                  
Tonight's the night of the flight
           Bm   A
Before you know ■
        Bm            
I'll be over the water


[Chorus]

Like a swallow

There's no risk

I'll whisk them up in no moonlight

And though pigs can fly

But you're not a swallow
