5 -6 5 -6 5 -6 7 <7 7 -6
Valjean, at last, we see each other plain
5 -6 5 -6 5 <-5 5 5 <-3 5 -2
Monsieur le Maire, you’ll wear a different chain
-10 9 9 -10 9 9 9 -10 9 9
Before you say another word, Javert
-10 9 9 -10 9 9 9 9 -10 9 9
Before you chain me up like a slave again
-10 9 9 -10 9 9 9 9 <-7 <7 <-7
Listen to me, there is something I must do
-10 9 9 -10 9 9 9 -10 9 9
This woman leaves behind a suffering child
-10 9 -10 9 -10 9 9 -10 9 9
There is none but me who can intercede
9 -10 9 -10 8 8 8 <-7 <7 <-7
In mercy’s name, three days are all I need
<-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 <-5 <7 <-7 8
Then I’ll return, I pledge my word
<-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 8 <8
Then I’ll return, you must think me mad
<-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 <7 <-7 8 <8
I’ve hunted you across the years
<7 <7 <7 <7 <7 <-7 <7
Men like you can never change
<7 <7 7 -6 7
A man such as you
9 -10 9 9 -10 9 9
Believe of me what you will
<7 7 -6 <7 7 -6 <7
Men like me can never change
-10 9 9 -10 9 9 9 -10 9 9
There is a duty that I’ve sworn to do
<-7 <7 7 <-7 <7 7 <-7
Men like you can never change
8 <-7 <7 8 <-7 <7 8
You know nothing of my life
8 8 8 <-7 <7 <-7
No, two four six oh one
<-7 <7 7 <-7 <-7 7 <-7
All I did was steal some bread
-10 9 9 -10 9 9
My duty’s to the law
<7 7 -6 <7 7 -6 <7
You know nothing of the world
-10 9 9 -10
You have no rights
<-7 <7 7 <-7 <7 7 <-7
You would sooner see me dead
-10 9 9 -10 9 -10 9 9
Come with me, two four six, oh one
9 -10 9 -10 8 8 8 <-7 <7 <-7
But not before I see this justice done
8 <-7 <7 8 <-7 <7 8
Now the wheel has turned around
<-7 <7 7 <-7 <7 7 <-7
Jean Valjean is nothing now
-10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10
I am warning you, Javert
<7 7 -6 <7 7 -6 <7
Dare you speak to me of crime
-10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10
I’m a stronger man by far
<-7 <7 7 <-7 <7 7 <-7
And the price you had to pay
-10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10
There is power in me yet
8 <-7 <7 8 <-7 <7 8
Every man is born in sin
-10 <11 -10 -10 <-9 -10 <11
My race is not yet run
<-7 <7 7 <-7 <7 7 <-7
Every man must choose his way
8 8 8 8 8 X X
I am warning you, Javert
<7 7 -6 <7 7 X X
You know nothing of Javert
8 8 8 8 8 8 8
There is nothing I won’t dare
<-7 <7 7 <-7 <7 7 <-7
I was born inside a jail
8 8 8 8 8 8 8
If I have to kill you here
8 <-7 <7 8 <-7 <7 8
I was born with scum like you
8 <-9 8 8 <-7 8
I’ll do what must be done
<-7 <7 7 <-7 <7 7 <-7
I am from the gutter too
-7 -7 -7 <-7 -7 7 -7 -6
And this I swear to you tonight
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6
There is no place for you to hide
<-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 -7 7 8 -7 7 -6
Your child will live within my care
-7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7
Wherever you may hide away
8 8 8 -9 8 <-7 -7 -6
And I will raise her to the light
-7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7 -6 -6
I swear to you, I will be there
