[Intro]
Em   C   G   Dx2
[Verse 1]
EmDeep in your heCart there was once a Gdiamond shining brDight
EmEvery dark plCace you passed Gby turned into lDight
But somebEmody broke intCo your heart and Dblew out your lEmights
And your Dsparkling little diamond turned pale overGnight
[Verse 2]
What the Emhell has becomCe of that pretty gGirl so sweet and niDce
EmWhere have remaCind your insatiable thGirst after liDfe
Girl what Emever they have dCone to you, wheDre ever you Emare
No eveDr so big force on earth could kill a burning heGart
[Chorus]
ShEmine on, shCine on
GDon't let the basDtards drag you down
EmShine on, Clike a torcGh burns in a sDtorm
EmShine on and Con, and keDep the fire buEmrning
EmShine on, shine Con, shine Don
/Here comes some kind of guitar solo, but just Em C G D x2 times sounds fine/
[Verse 3]
Your tEmrain ran off the raCils, hey girl you dGidn't lay the trDacks
If you wanna Emreach for the sCky you have to gGo through hell and bDack
Don't delEmiver girl, let mCe take you Dby the haEmnd
At the eDnd of the rainbow the way of cross still eGnds
[Chorus]
ShEmine on, shCine on
GDon't let the basDtards drag you down
EmShine on, Clike a torcGh burns in a sDtorm
EmShine on and Con, and keDep the fire buEmrning
EmShine on, shine Con, shine Don
/Violin solo, then drums and piano, you just strum all the chords once/
Shine Emon, shine Con, shine Don
Shine Emon, shine Con, shine Don
Shine Emon, shine Con, shine Don
Shine Emon, shine Con, shine Don (mute)
Don't let the bastards drag you down!
/Speed up/
ShEmine on, shCine on
GDon't let the basDtards drag you down
EmShine on, Clike a torcGh burns in a sDtorm
EmShine on and Con, and keDep the fire buEmrning
EmShine on, shine Con, shine Don
/Strum once, then finish it only with your voice as sad as you can :)/
Shine Emon, shine Con, shine Don
Don't let the bastards drag you Emdown...
