[Verse 1]
Em          Cadd9
Hold a halo round the world
Em             Cadd9
Golden is the day
Em             Cadd9
Princes of the Universe,
     Dsus2          Asus2
your burden is the way
Em             Cadd9
So there is no better time,
    Em             Cadd9
who will be born today
  Em             Cadd9
A gypsy child at day break
  Dsus2       Asus2
A King for a day
[Chorus]
Em         C          D         A
Out of the Shadow and into the sun
Em            C           D            A
Dreams of the past as the old ways are done
Em           C          D               A
Oh, there is beauty and surely there is pain
    Em        C           D      A
But we must endure it, to live again
[Verse 2]
Em              Cadd9
Dusty dreams in fading daylight
Em             Cadd9
Flicker on the walls
Em                Cadd9
Nothing new, your life's adrift,
     Dsus2          Asus2
what purpose to it all?
Em                  Cadd9
Eyes are closed and death is calling
Em               Cadd9
Reaching out its hand
Em             Cadd9          Dsus2   Asus2
Call upon the starlight to surround you
[Chorus]
Em         C          D         A
Out of the Shadow and into the sun
Em            C           D            A
Dreams of the past as the old ways are done
Em           C          D               A
Oh, there is beauty and surely there is pain
    Em        C           D      A
