(Verse 1)

C       G           Am
There, out in the darkness
    G       F
A fugitive running
Dm  C        G
Fallen from god
 G            C
Fallen from grace
G           Am
God be my witness
   G            F
I never shall yield
 Dm                   G
Till we come face to face
  G                   Am
Till we come face to face
Am                       Dm
He knows his way in the dark
G                       Em
Mine is the way of the Lord
                          F
And those who follow the path of the righteous
                   C
Shall have their reward
             Fm  (133114)
And if they fall
             Bb  (113314)
As Lucifer fell
     D#/Eb   (Barre 3rd fret, regular C shape) (x65343)
The flame
      G    [Barre is preferred (355433)]
The sword!

(Verse 2: Same as verse 1)

C
Stars
G         Am
In your multitudes
 G            F
Scarce to be counted
Dm C          G
Filling the darkness
 G              C
With order and light
G            Am
You are the sentinels
G           F
Silent and sure
 Dm                   G
Keeping watch in the night
  G                   Am
Keeping watch in the night

Am                         Dm
You know your place in the sky
G                              Em
You hold your course and your aim
                          F
And each in your season returns and returns
                   C
And is always the same
             Fm             Bb
And if you fall as Lucifer fell
D#/Eb         G
You fall in flame!

(Bridge to Outro:)


G              C                  Em
And so it has been and so it is written
         Bb          F
On the doorway to paradise
F                G#        C#        C
That those who falter and those who fall
 Dm            G
Must pay the price!

C G C

G            F
Lord let me find him
 F          G
That I may see him
 F           C
Safe behind bars
G        F
I will never rest
      Dm
Till then
        G
This I swear
                      C           G   C
This I swear by the stars! (The final note is sung through the G and C)
