Roger Alan Wade - The Light Outlives The Star Chords & Tabs

Capo 1st fret

E
There are stars so distant

A
The light that left 'em ages ago just came into

E
view

B7
That twinkling we're seeing now
May 

A
be from a star that burned out ages a-

E
go

B7
When I was 

E
young like you
Oh and that's the 

A
way
That's the way our 

E
people are
They ain't 

B7
gone long as they shine on

E
In our hearts
And just so we 

A
know
Right where they

E
are

B7
God lets the light outlive the 

E
star
The stars we see in the sky at night

A
Are there all day but they're lost in the sunlight

E
Without darkness, stars cannot shine

B7
As without sorrow, joy would be be-

E
nign
Oh and that's the 

A
way
That's the way our 

E
people are
They ain't 

B7
gone long as they shine on
