Who is this man?

To put a seal on my fate

Wipe out the past
N.C.
And wash me clean off the slate!

And he gave me back my life!

[Verse 4]
Dm Bb/D
And must I now begin to doubt
D
Who never doubted all these years?
Bm F#
My heart is stone and still it trembles
G D
The world I have known is lost in shadow
Bbaug G
Is he from heaven or from hell?
A D
And does he know
Bbaug Gm
That granting me my life today
A Bbaug
This man has killed me even so?
[Verse 5]
Bm
I am reaching, but I fall
Bm
And the stars are black and cold
D/A
As I stare into the void
D/A
Of a world that cannot hold
Ab7-5
I'll escape now from that world
Ab7-5
From the world of Jean Valjean
Ab7-5
There is nowhere I can turn
Ab7-5 Adim7 B
There is no way to go on!
