VERES 1

              Am
Have you ever been to northpoint
Dm                       Am
  To spend your time and pray
Dm                     Am                Dm
  The prison walls are dark and cold and grey
                   Am
The writing on the wall at northpoint
Dm                   Am
  Speaks to a silent room
Dm                   Am                     Dm
  They shut the bars down, leave you to the gloom

CHORUS 
*******
             Bb      C
how could we get any closer, so high is the wire
        F
and the guards won't listen
Bb           C          Dm
  they won't believe me

            Bb       C
and then it all came back
                           F
somewhere far above, has a new day risen
Bb               C            Dm
  way beyond the searchlight, comes alive, comes alive

VERSE 2

                 Am
Then on a bright day at northpoint
Dm                  Am
  The gate was open wide
Dm                     Am          Dm
  They chanced to look at what was inside

                     Am
There were a million stars at northpoint
Dm                    Am
  And from the silent tomb
Dm                    Am
  They took it to the heart,
                 Dm
And left for the moon
