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