Biography:
Avantasia, from Germany, is the side-project of Edguy singer Tobias Sammet, founded in 1999. Two concept albums were released (The Metal Opera, The Metal Opera Pt. II), their structures similar to that of an opera. Both can be classified as Power Metal and/or Symphonic Metal. After the second album, Sammet announced that there would not be any more Avantasia albums. However, in January 2008 a third album was released, titled The Scarecrow. On November 16th 2007 two 6-track albums Lost in Space Part 1 and Lost in Space Part 2 were released.

Intro:
D* Bb F C
D* Bb F* F*
Dm Bb
When I was sent to walk this long cold way
F C
I'd never meant to take it all this far
Dm Bb
Nobody told me I was bound to stray
F Bb
You gave me visions and cut out this part
C5 G5
When the journey is over
Bb
Then what will remain
But a churchyard of angels
D5 Bb5
Don't need no glory
F5 C5
The bottle and I
D5 C5 A5 Bb5
Don't need no sympathy at all
As I hang on the edge
D5 Bb5
Don't need no glory
F5 C5
Till the river's run dry
D5 C5 A5 Bb5
I won't cry for sympathy as I
Hang on the edge
Dm Bb
When your were shackles chances passed me by
F
I've broken free
C
Now I'm free falling
Dm Bb
Laid down my arms as you laid down the lie:
F Bb
Those words you didn't say when I was calling
C5 G5
Fingers bleed onto the ivory
Bb
They dance on the keys
To a churchyard of angels
D5 Bb5
Don't need no glory
F5 C5
The bottle and I
D5 C5 A5 Bb5
Don't need no sympathy at all
As I hang on the edge
D5 Bb5
Don't need no glory
F5 C5
Till the river's run dry
D5 C5 A5 Bb5
I won't cry for sympathy as I
Hang on the edge
