[Verse 1]
EmMoses was Gold, a chill in his Dbones
AmFalling Capart, he knew in his Gheart that his time had Dcome
EmAs he lay in his Gtent in the hot desert Dsands
AmHe smiled at how Che would never Gsee his promised Dland
He sang, "CI could have Dlived and Emdied
Cadd9An Egyptian Gprince, could have played Csafe
GBut in the end journey's brought Djoys
That outweigh the Gpain"
[Verse 2]
EmNow Odysseus Gsat tired and Dalone
He'd always held out against all the doubts he would come home
EmNow he was Ghere, his soul felt Destranged
AmHis wife and his Cdog, his son and his Ggods, everything Dchanged
He sang, "CI could have Dstayed andEm ruled
Cadd9As an Ithacan Gprince, could've played Csafe
GBut in the end journey's brought Djoys
That outweigh the Gpain"
[Verse 3]
EmNow Balthazar Grode for seven long Dyears
AmEastwards and Cfar, he followed his Gstar and it brought him Dhere
EmTo a stable in Gruins in some backwater Dtown
AmTo a virgin Cdefiled, no king but a Gchild, too small for a Dcrown
He sang, "CI could have Dlived with my EmGods
Cadd9As a Persian Gprince, I could've played Csafe
But in the Gend journey's brought Djoys
That outweigh the Gpain"
[Outro]
EmPaupers and kings, Gprinces and thieves
Singers of Csongs, Drighters of wrongs, be what you Gbelieve
EmSaddle your Ghorse, shoulder your Dload
CBurst at the seams, Dbe what you dream and then take to the Groad
