Verse 1:
C
The furthest star in the sky
Am
Well that's the one that passed me by
Em
I tried to wish upon that star
F
It didn't get me very far
C
It fell on empty ears
Am
It fell on empty hearts
Em F
And my dreams, they fell apart
Em F
I'm always wishing I was someone else
Em F
I'm always hoping I can sell myself
Chorus:
C Am
But I'll be free for what I believe
Em F
And I won't sell my soul just to achieve my goal
C Am Em
And I've been holding back the tears, dreaming all these years
F
And I sing from the heart if you listen to me
Em G C
Everything I do is what I believe
Verse 2:
C
The lights went out across the world
Am
And your house of cards came tumbling down
Em
Cause nothing stays and noting sticks
F
When you're rolling with the lunatics
C
But my star in the darkest sky
Am
Twinkles and watches while the other stars die
Em F
Upon your empty ears and empty hearts
Em F
I'm always wishing I was someone else
Em F
But I've given up the ghost, I will never sell myself
Chorus:
C Am
But I'll be free for what I believe
Em F
And I won't sell my soul just to achieve my goal
C Am Em
And I've been holding back the tears, dreaming all these years
F
And I sing from the heart if you listen to me
Em G C
Everything I do is what I believe
Verse 3:
C
The furthest star in the sky
Am
Well that's the one that passed me by
Em
I tried to wish upon that star
F
It didn't get me very far

The tabs of Theme and Outro aren't 100% the ones that are originally played, but I liked
it that way. You may change it, if you want. :)
