Chairs Against the Wall
Style: Motown soul

[Verse 1]
Somebody stacked the chairs up crooked
Nobody cared to get it right
We were saving all the noise
For the minute you walk in tonight

[Pre-chorus]
Hear that scrape of feet on the floor
Watch the doors swing wide again
Something good is walking in

[Chorus]
Ciara, look what we built for you
Painted brick and borrowed light
Every voice in here knows your name
Ciara, this whole room loves you right

[Verse 2]
Somebody taped a sign to the doorway
Somebody spelled your name in gold
We have waited on this evening
Longer than the story's told

[Bridge]
You could walk through any old room
And it would light up just the same
We are only lucky tonight
That the room in question has your name

[Chorus]
Ciara, look what we built for you
Painted brick and borrowed light
Every voice in here knows your name
Ciara, this whole room loves you right

[Outro]
Someday soon they'll stack the chairs again
But tonight they stay right where they lean
