Verse 1:
                      C      F
I've been outside the palace
                      C
I've been outside the gate
                              G
I still don't feel I made any mistake
       F            C     F
When I got off that train
                       C      F
I felt my feet hit the ground
                 C                        G          F
I didn't want to go where that gravy train was bound
               C   F
GOD help me to see 
                     C    F
I've been loved all along
                C                    F         G        C
And not get too confused between the moonlight and the dawn

Verse 2:
                           F
If I go back to the palace
                          C    F
I'll walk right thru' the gate
        C                  G 
Nobody knows how much here was at stake
         F           C    F
I might get on that train
                       C    F
feel the wheel on the track
                C                       G    F
Move it up the mountain like a foregone fact
               C    F
GOD help me to know
                     C         F
I've been in love my whole life
                  C                     F        G      C     F
And not to get so confused between the struggle and the strife
               C    F
GOD help me to see
                    C     F
I've been loved all along
                  C                    F          G       C
And not to get so confused between the moonlight and the dawn
                  C                    F          G       C
And not to get so confused between the moonlight and the dawn
