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

Are you bad at dealing with the fame, Joseph?

          B           A         E/G#        B
There's a pale moon - shine a - bove you,

       E/G#     C#m            A             B
Do you see both sides? Do they shove you a - round?

B      E                         A     E
Is the touchstone forcing you to hide, Joseph?

Are the rumours eating you a - live, Joseph?

         B    A            E/G#      B
When the holy night is u - pon you,

         E/G#      C#m             A         B
Will you do what's right, the po - sition is yours?

B        G      C            G/D      C/E
From the temple walls to the New York night,

    G/B       D         C
Our decisions rest on a child.

         G        C
When she took her stand,

        G/B       C/E
Did she hold your hand?

          G/B         D                C
Will your faith stand still or run a - way, 

        G
Run a - way?

C#m          E             A
When they've driven you so far, 

         E/B
That you think you're gonna drop,

       E             A                 C#m
Do you wish you were back there at the     carpenter shop?

         B             A
With the plane and the lathe, 

         E/G#            B
The work never drove you mad.

         E/G#            C#m
You're a maker, a crea - tor,

Not just   somebody's dad

From the temple walls to the New York night,

         G/B     D         C
Our de - cisions rest on a man.

       G        C
When I take the stand,

        G/B     C/E
Will he hold my hand?

        G/B         D                C
Will my faith stand still or run a - way, 

        E
Run a - way?

E       A
And the desert, 

       B                       E        C#m
It's a hell of a place to find heaven

A                       B                            C#m
Forty years lost in the wilderness looking for God

        A                       B
And you climb to the top of the mountain

                    B      E
Looking down on the city,

      F#/A#    A
Where you were born

                                      B
All the years since you left gave you time to sit back and reflect

E         A        E/G#        B
   Better you than me, (better you than me)

E         A        E/G#  B
   Better you than me, yeah

         E    A            E/G#            B           (E)
When the holy night is u - pon you (Better you, better you)

       E        A              E/G#          B        E
Do you see both sides? Do they shove you a - round?

       A            E/G#     B
Better you than me, Joseph,

       E                    A
Better you than me, (better you than me)

E/G#            E       A
Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph

     E/G#   
Than me, 

       B
Better you than me

   Better you than me

       E/G#        B
Better you, better you than me

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