There we were, the three of us,
A
The thief, the king and I.
E
Finally, we were forced to see,
Bm
We were equals in the night.
(Starry, starry night)
F#m
Looking down between the trees,
A
And the town we knew we had to leave.
E
For what it's worth,
Bm
We will walk the Earth til we find the things we seek.
And the king said:
F#m
I believe I'm a non-believer now.
A
I 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 go.

Oh my god, oh my god, yes, oh my god.

They will not protect us, we will fall.
A
They will not defend us.
Em F#m Em F#m
We'll be left behind, we'll be left behind.
Bm E F#m
I never give a damn about the story's end,
C#m Bm
Or even how it all began.
E A E F#m
And the one word that I'll seek is one that I can tell myself.
E F#m
And it's a long and winding road,
C#m Bm
But if you reap the seeds you sow,
E
You'll see you're really not alone.

There we were, the three of us,
A
The priest, the tramp, and I.
E
Years ago, we had left to roam,
Bm
But reunited on that night.
(Starry, starry night)
F#m
No one had to speak a word,
A
For we all knew what the others learned.
E
And everything that we ever did,
Bm
Was but a way to pass the time.
And the priest said:
F#m
I believe I'm a true believer now,
A
I 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.
A Bm D
Oh my god, oh my god, yes, oh my god.
