Steer By The Stars

A  E  F#m  D  A  E  A

     A          E            A          C#m
With Twilight descending and slumber ye find,
         Bm             F#m          A     D    Dmaj7  E
And I am certain that I have safely passed from your   mind,
     F#m           E        A        D
Only then can I serenade you unconfined
       D       F#m   G
In the secrecy of my heart.

       A               E             A          C#m
Do you shine bright as always, as in sagas of   old?
             Bm             F#m       A       D   Dmaj7 E
Do you still sing with four voices or breathe hot and   cold?
       F#m        E         A           D
Do you nurture my memory or yet still behold,
        D           F#m        G
Another creature of sun and of heart?

    E         A         Bm           F#m
And how can a blind man steer by the stars,
        F     C            G  Gsus G
And how can a poor man find power?
E         A        Bm             F#m
How can a dead man raise from his grave,
        G          D            A
And how can I have hope in this hour?

    A        E             A         C#m
I desired no promise, only your company,
      Bm                 F#m           A     D    Dmaj7 E
And I flourished in your presence most whole-hear-ted   ly.
         F#m               E           A         D
Though I still would rejoin you and face reality,
     D             F#m        G
It entraps me from dusk until dawn.

       A            E          A             C#m
Now we all take our chances on what we would gain,
         Bm               F#m         A   D     Dmaj7 E
But only fools would rush in where an An- gel's been  slain.
        F#m              E            A             D
And the sound of four voices, they still call my name,
     D           F#m         G
Even though your presence is gone.

    E         A         Bm           F#m
And how can a blind man steer by the stars,
        F     C            G  Gsus G
And how can a poor man find power?
E         A        Bm             F#m
How can a dead man raise from his grave,
        G          D            A
And how can I have hope in this hour?

Dm    C    F    G     A
Ohhh  Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh  Ohhh
Dm    C    F    G     A
Ohhh  Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh  Ohhh
Dm    C    F    G     E
Ohhh  Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh  Ahhh

A             E        A             C#m
Free from all envy and free from all pride,
  Bm               F#m      A      D  Dmaj7 E
I marveled at your joy as I walked by your  side.
      F#m            E                  A         D
And I wish not to taint you with the aspects I hide
      D        F#m              G
Of my past, my thoughts, and my fears.

     A            E            A               C#m
When time finally tempers this heart, sick and sore,
         Bm             F#m         A      D  Dmaj7 E
And your eyes no longer dance in my dreams an-y     more,
       F#m                E             A           D
I will still sing your praises for a time long before,
      D          F#m     G
I was blinded by so many tears.

    E         A         Bm           F#m
And how can a blind man steer by the stars,
        F     C            G  Gsus G
And how can a poor man find power?
E         A        Bm             F#m
How can a dead man raise from his grave,
        G          D            A
And how can I have hope in this hour?
