Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[G]Mos[Em]es was old[G], a chill in his bon[D]es.
Fall[Am]ing [C]apart, he knew in his [G]heart
that his time had [D]come.
[Em]As he lay in his [G]tent in the hot
[D]desert sands,
He smiled [Am]at how [C]he would never
[G]see his promised [D]land.

[Verse 2]
[C]He sang
"I [D]could have lived and
[Em]died [D]an Egyptian [G]prince,
I could have played [C]safe,
But in the [G]end the journey's
Brought [D]joys that outweigh the
[G]pain."
[Em]Odysseus

[Verse 3]
[G]sat tired [D]and alone.
He'd al[Am]ways held [C]out against
All the [G]doubts that
he would come [D]home.
But now [Em]he was [G]here,
His soul felt es[D]tranged.
His wife [Am]and his [C]dog,
His son and his [G]Gods,
everything [D]changed.

[Verse 4]
[C]He sang
"I [D]could have stayed and
[Em]ruled [D]as an Ithican prince,
[G]I could've played s[C]afe.
But in the [G]end the journey's brought
[D]Joys that [C]out[D]weigh the pain."

[Em]Balthazar

[Verse 5]
[G]rode for seven [Bm]long [D]years,
[Am]Eastwards and [C]far,
He followed his [G]star,
And it brought him [D]here.
[Em]To a stable in ru[G]ins
In some [Bm]backwater [D]town,
To a [Am]virgin defiled,
[C]No king but a c[G]hild,
Too small for a crown.
[D]

[Verse 6]
He sang
[C]"I could have [D]lived with my [Em]Gods
as a [D]Persian [G]prince,
I could've played [C]safe,
But in the [G]end the journey's brought
[D]Joys [C]that outweigh the pain."
[G][C]

[Verse 7]
[G]
Paupers and kings,
princes and [C]thieves,[G]
Singers [Em]of songs, [C]righters of [D]wrongs,
be what you believe.
[G]So [C]sad[G]dle your horse and[C]
[G]shoulder you[C]r load,[G]
Burst at the seam[Em]s,
[C]be what [D]you dream, and take to the road.
[G]
