I think the lyrics go like this, but I'm not totaly sure.
Well anyway:

What This Night Is For

she's got a place within the woods
where she swings near the house in the trees,
she’s got a way with animals
and invites me along to get free...

there's an army of men who'd shoot for her,
even goddesses watch when she moves...
friends get us high and something opens up the sky,
it feels as we've nothing to lose...

and we've never been in this place before,
not as it is right now...
and we may never know what this night is for,
so for now we'll just sit around...

he's got a way of lingering
like a ghost that just won't go away,
he's got a place within the wind,
he's around but i know he won't stay...

there's an army of stars that crash the night,
they would burn even still it was cold...
so we dared the guards to come and sit and talk with us,
we were bruised, we were spared, we were bold...

and we've never been in this place before,
no, not as it is right now,right now...
and we may never know what this night is for,
so for now we will just sit around...
yeah, for now, we will just sit around...

'cause we've never been in this place before,
no, not as it is right now, right now...
and we may never know what this life and long living is for,
so for now we’ll just sit around...

And I think the chords are like this,
just try how it works while listening to the song!

Verse: C G F
Chorus: Am G F

I wish I had the sheet paper to it!

But I am not sure.

I think you're right. At least that's what I hear as well.

I thinks it's 'The Gods' instead of the Guards... and in the first verse I think it's 'It Fills us' instead of 'It feels as'...

Another great version @ youtube:
