Em
Many years ago 
       A        C
There was a man 
Em
He was doing things 
     A             C
That no one could seem to understand 

Em
But those times were strained 
       A                 C
Some things went bad, I can't explain no 
Em
All I know for sure is 
      A             C
His spirit still remains

You lost the battle, that's for sure oh no! 
C            D
But what you left behind 
        Em
Let me tell you, is still shining

C            D
But what you left behind 
        Em
Let me tell you, It's still shining 

Em
When you came out of nowhere 
    A               C
You set the world ablaze 
Em
But you didn't belong here 
        A            C
So you left us all amazed 

Em
In our hearts your still alive 
            A                C
Though you tasted all the forbidden fruit 
Em
Now it's so hard to describe 
           A              C
Why in the end you had to lose
