Biography:
There Will Be Fireworks. It sounds like something a sports commentator might say before a title decider or grand slam final. It’s loaded with intent and certainty; entertainment and drama are a given. So it’s just as well the Glasgow band who chose that name are promising to live up to it, even if it was only struck upon through drunken chance. “One night we’d all been round at a friend’s house and woke up the next day with ‘There Will Be Fireworks’ in our phone inboxes,” says singer and guitarist Nicky McManus.

[Intro]
C#m A E B
C#m A E B
C#m
The city sleeps but we're awake
C#m
We spirit home before the break
A
Of dawn upon the streets
A
In which we live and love and breathe
E
And half the high-rises have turned to dust
E
The Fairfields now are scrap and rust
B
The sirens sing, the west wind howls
What once was here was holy ground
C#m
Not now, and I confess that I've lately been a mess
A
So I wonder where you'll sleep tonight
A
And decide it would be best
E
To stay out late and not come home
E
To wander Kelvingrove alone
B
I'm young enough to still believe
B
Some faded glory might just shelter me
C#m A E B
C#m
And here is where my whole world turns
C#m
And here is where my heart returns
A
And here is where I've sworn and cursed
A
And here is where I kissed you first
E
In amber light shot through with rain
E
I swear I don't intend to waste
B
A syllable, each word is blessed
B
The truth must blaze through every single breath
F#m
Unbending, stark, a lit steeple against unending dark
E
And someone sprayed this on the wall: "I love it here"
E
I don't at all
C#m
Do you live for the love you've found?
C#m
Some sad slow song to lay you down
A
And still your weary worried heart
A
Throw light upon your darkest dark
E
That unsung psalm burst into flame
E
That wild black night that calls your name
B
O river, take my bloodied bones
B
The toll can have my heart to hold
C#m
Do you live for the loves you've lost?
C#m
Do they linger in your thoughts?
A
And ever in your fitful sleeps
A
In your wild and dark imaginings
E
Do you ever really dream of me?
E
And if you did what would that mean?
B
O river, take my bloodied bones
B
The toll can have my heart to hold
F#m
Unbending, stark, a lit steeple against unending dark
E
O river, take my bloodied bones
N.C.
The toll can have my heart to hold
