Standard (EADGBE)

Well your eyes just haven’t been the same, Joseph

Are you bad at dealing with the fame, Joseph

 There’s a pale moonshine above you

 Do you see both sides, do they shove you around

 Is the touchstone forcing you to hide, Joseph

 Are the rumours eating you alive, Joseph

When the holy night is upon you

 Will you do what’s right, the position is yours

 From the temple walls to the New York night

 Our decisions rest on a child

 When she took her stand did she hold your hand

 Will your faith stand still or run away

Run away

 When they've driven you so far

 That you think you're gonna drop

 Do you wish you were back there at the carpenter shop

 With the plane and the lathe

 The work never drove you mad

 You're a maker, a creator

 Not just somebody's dad

 From the temple walls to the New York night

 Our decisions rest on a man

 When I take the stand

 Will he hold my hand

 Will my faith stand still or run away

(Run Awaaaayyyy)

 And the desert

 It's a hell of a place to find heaven

Forty years lost in the wilderness looking for God

And you climb to the top of the mountain

 Looking down on the city where you were born

On the years since you left

Gave you time to sit back and reflect

Better you than me

Better you than me

Better you than me

Yes

 Well the holy night is upon you

 Do you see both sides, do they shove you around

Just continue E A E B as elton jams until the final line and finish on

 Well your eyes just havent been the same, Joseph
