D, A, G, D x2
DShine on, Cshine on me
GAll I know is now I want you Eclose to me
DI can't really tell you what the F#future's gonna Bmbe
Just for Gnow, little Alady, shine on Dme
DLean on, Clean on me
GSomething tells me that's the way it's Egotta be
DI can't really show you what the F#future's gonna Bmbe
Just for Gnow, little Alady, lean on Dme
F#To fall in love with love was maybe, Bmjust a fantasy
BmAnd promises we made could be Eminsane
GDon't think of Dtomorrow, Gyesterday is Dpast
GAnd if you could, you know we could make it Alast
Guitar Solo (Same chords as verse)
DDrink on, Cdrink on me
GSlip and slide so I'll forget Ereality
DI can't really say if I'll come F#on and get so Bmfree
Just for Gnow, little Alady, drink on Dme
F#To fall in love with love was maybe, Bmjust a fantasy
BmAnd promises we made could be Eminsane
GDon't think of Dtomorrow, Gyesterday is Dpast
GAnd if you could, you know we could make it Alast
DShine on, Cshine on me
GAll I know is now I want you Eclose to me
DI can't really tell you what the F#future's gonna Bmbe
Just for Gnow, little Alady, shine on Dme
Just for Gnow, little Alady, shine on Dme
Just for Gnow, little Alady, shine on Dme.
