Am Em
Far from the worn path of reason
C G
Further away from the sane
Dm Am
He battles his shadows and demons
F E Am
Fighting to light the way
Am Em
And the dust and the dirt cloud his vision
C G
Onward he rides unafraid
Dm Am
He fights the good fight for good reason
F E Am
A star that refuses to fade
[Refrão]

Still he braves his path…
Dm/F C F Gsus4 G
Wind - mills only laugh

Am Em
She was wounded and wild when he found her
C G
He saw her through child’s eyes
Dm Am
She fell for the spell he was under
F E Am
Each day a brand new surprise
Am Em
And she watches with strange curiosity

She wants so much to believe

Trying to break the chains of reality

Dying to set herself free

verse 3
Am Em
Though he may appear tattered and broken
C G
His clothes are shabby and bare
Dm Am
Still he glows like the light from a candle
F E Am
With passion of one who still cares
Am Em
There was always a rhyme to the reason
C G
Peering out from tired eyes
Dm Am
The truth finally came in treason
F E Am
So wrong, but so justified…
F E Am
So wrong, but so justified…
F E Am
Windmills close their eyes…
