Verse 1:
    C
 The furthest star in the sky
       Am
 Well that's the one that passed me by
    Em
 I tried to wish upon that star
     F
 It didn't get me very far
     C
 It fell on empty ears
     Am
 It fell on empty hearts
         Em                F
 And my dreams, they fell apart

            Em                        F
 I'm always wishing I was someone else
            Em                       F
 I'm always hoping I can sell myself


Chorus:
       C                        Am
 But I'll be free for what I believe
              Em                     F
 And I won't sell my soul just to achieve my goal
       C                         Am                        Em
 And I've been holding back the tears, dreaming all these years
        F
 And I sing from the heart if you listen to me
 Em                      G     C
 Everything I do is what I believe

Verse 2:
      C
 The lights went out across the world
           Am
 And your house of cards came tumbling down
       Em
 Cause nothing stays and noting sticks
              F
 When you're rolling with the lunatics
      C
 But my star in the darkest sky
  Am
 Twinkles and watches while the other stars die
  Em                             F
 Upon your empty ears and empty hearts

            Em                        F
 I'm always wishing I was someone else
                        Em                            F
 But I've given up the ghost, I will never sell myself


Chorus:
       C                        Am
 But I'll be free for what I believe
              Em                     F
 And I won't sell my soul just to achieve my goal
       C                         Am                        Em
 And I've been holding back the tears, dreaming all these years
        F
 And I sing from the heart if you listen to me
 Em                      G     C
 Everything I do is what I believe


Verse 3:
      C
 The furthest star in the sky
       Am
 Well that's the one that passed me by
    Em
 I tried to wish upon that star
     F
 It didn't get me very far

The tabs of Theme and Outro aren't 100% the ones that are originally played, but I liked 
it that way. You may change it, if you want. :)
