F#mThere we were, the three of us,
AThe thief, the king and I.
EFinally, we were forced to see,
BmWe were equals in the night.
(Starry, starry night)
F#mLooking down between the trees,
AAnd the town we knew we had to leave.
EFor what it's worth,
We will walk the Earth til we Bmfind the things we seek.
And the king said:
F#mI believe I'm a non-believer now.
AI was a leader, but I had to leave them all.
Bm D D(5th fret)
No one will ever know the things I held inside,
So let them goF#m.
Oh my godA, oh my goBmd, yes, oh my goDd.

F#mThey will not prAotect us, we will faF#mll.
They will not deAfend us.
We'll be lEmeft behiF#mnd, we'll be leEmft behF#mind.
BmI never give a Edamn about the story'sF#m end,

Or even how it all began.
E F#m '
And the one word that I'll seek is one that I can tell myself.
And it's a long and winding road,
But if you reap the seeds you sow,
You'll see you're really not alone.
F#mI will never Adefend a mEan who makes aBmmends with any enemy's friendsF#m,
I will nAever pretend.Bm
F#mI will never Abow down tEo another man even when everBmyone's sayin' I've sinnF#med,

F#mThere we were, the three of us,
AThe priest, the tramp, and I.
EYears ago, we had left to roam,
But reuniBmted on that night.
(Starry, starry night)
F#mNo one had to speak a word,
AFor we all knew what the others learned.
EAnd everything that we ever did,
Was but a Bmway to pass the time.
And the priest said:
F#mI believe I'm a true believer now,
AI was a sinner, but I came to see the light.
Bm D D(5th fret)
The bum and me did not agree, but I must confess of jealousy.
Oh my godA, oh my goBmd, yes, oh my goDd.
