:  320033 or 320003
  The furthest  star in the sky
  Well that's  the one that passed me by
  I tried  to wish upon that star
  It didn't  get me very far
  It fell  on empty ears
  It fell  on empty hearts
  And my dreams,  they fell apart
  I'm always wishing  I was someone else
  I'm always hoping  I can sell myself
  But I'll  be free for what I believe
  And I won't sell  my soul just to achieve  my goal
  And I've  been holding back the tears,  dreaming all these years
  And I sing  from the heart if you'll listen to me
 Everything I do is what I  believe
  The lights  went out across the world
  And your house  of cards came tumbling down
  Cause nothing  stays and noting sticks
  When you're rolling  with the lunatics
  But my  star in the darkest sky
  Twinkles  and watches while the other stars die
  Upon  your empty ears and empty hearts
  I'm always wishing  I was someone else
  But I've given up the ghost,  I will never sell myself
  But I'll  be free for what I believe
  And I won't sell  my soul just to achieve  my goal
  And I've  been holding back the tears,  dreaming all these years
  And I sing  from the heart if you'll listen to me
 Everything I do is what I  believe
  The furthest  star in the sky
  Well that's  the one that passed me by
  I tried  to wish upon that star
  It didn't  get me very far
 
  End on

 The f[D]urthest star in the sky

 I'm always [F#m]hoping I can sell myself   [Bm]

 But I'[D]ll be free for what I bel[Bm]ieve
 And I won't s[F#m]ell my soul just to achi[G]eve my goal
 And I'[D]ve been holding back the t[Bm]ears, dreaming all these y[F#m]ears
 And I s[G]ing from the heart if you'll listen to me
[F#m] Everything I do is what [G]I beli[D]eve
