E   E              Dbm     Dbm7  
There, out in the darkness
            A     A   
A fugitive running
            B
Fallen from God
             E   E    
Fallen from grace
            Dbm    Dbm7  
God be my witness
              A     A   
I never shall yield
                     B
Till we come face to face
                     Dbm Dbm7  
Till we come face to face
                       F#m   F#m  
He knows his way in the dark
                       G#m
Mine is the way of the Lord
                            A
And those who do follow the path of the righteous
                   E
Shall have their reward
            Am
And if they fall
           D7
As Lucifer fell
    G
The flame
    B
The sword!
 
 
E     E   
Stars
        Dbm       Dbm7  
In your multitudes
             A      A   
Scarce to be counted
            B
Filling the darkness
               E     E   
With order and light
            Dbm      Dbm7  
You are the sentinels
           A      A   
Silent and sure
                     B
Keeping watch in the night
                     Dbm     Dbm7  
Keeping watch in the night
                           F#m   F#m  
You know your place in the sky
                              G#m
You hold your course and your aim
 
And each in your season
A
Returns and returns
 
 
                  E
And is always the same
           Am              D7
And if you fall as Lucifer fell
    G       B
You fall in flame!
 
 
              E                 G#m
And so it has been and so it is written
       Bm             A
On the doorway to paradise
               Am                   E
That those who falter and those who fall
     F#      B
Must pay the price!

Lord let me find him
           D       D7
That I may see him
            G    G  
Safe behind bars
       Em
I will never rest
     Am
Till then
       D
This I swear
                    G   G     Em   G  
This I swear by the stars
