SHINE - Jason Mraz
http://youtu.be/IhlcZlarfPQ
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
~ The basic chord structure is D C Bm Bb, but there are a lot of flourishes, this is
really just a simplified version of the song.
~ The timing on the (Bb to C) is pretty tough to get. The C is the last beat if you are
counting out to four: Bb Bb Bb C. You can leave out the C if you would like.
~ The timing on the (G to A) in the bridge is the same as above. Suggestions on a replacement
for the A are welcome since it's not quite right. I've tried x00220 but it's still
not perfect.
==INTRO== (Bbm is played barred 677666)
Bbm A Bb C D
D C Bm BbC
( )
==VERSE==
D
Once upon a time there was a meeting of minds
C
The sun and the moon made a deal with the sky
Bm
One would take the morning and the other the night
Bb C
Together they would blanket the world with light
D
But the moon had a shadow, he felt like a liar
C
The sun was the only one who carried the fire
Bm
The sun saw this, she kept on glowing
Bb C
( )
Bowing to the moon, never saying, "you owe me"
==CHORUS==
D
She said I'll shine on you (shine on you)
C
I will shine on you (shine on you)
Bm
I will shine on you (shine on you)
Bb C
( )
I will shine on you
D C Bm BbC
( )
==VERSE==
D
I keep lantern for you, glowing in my heart
C
To keep from tripping over troublesome thoughts in the dark
Bm
We ain't that different, we huddle underneath the same stars
Bb C
( )
--- I see who you really are
D
You're every creature, every man, every woman and child
C
You're the closest thing I'll ever get to knowing God
Bm
Like the sun to the moon, I'll send my love and light
Bb C
( )
A love like ours, it'll fill the whole sky
==CHORUS==
D
I will shine on you (shine on you)
C
I will shine on you (shine on you)
Bm
I will shine on you (shine on you)
Bb C
( )
I will shine on you
D
I will shine on you (shine on you)
C
I will shine on you (shine on you)
Bm
I will shine on you (shine on you)
Bb C D
I will shine, shine, shine on you
D D D
==BRIDGE==
G A
( )
Think of the people that you love the most
Bb C
( )
Send them your light and hold them close
D C
They will shine on you, I will shine on you
G A
( )
No matter the distance, the space, or the time
Bb C
( )
Love travels in the speed of light
D C
I will shine on you, I will shine on you
Bm Bb
I will shine on you, I will shine on you
==VERSE==
D
And if you forget we are the chosen ones
C
Turn your eyes to the attention of the morning sun
Bm
Wherever you go, however you move
Bb C
( )
The light is gonna shine directly to you
==CHORUS==
D
Let it shine on you (shine on you)
C
Let it shine on you (shine on you)
Bm
Let it shine on you (shine on you)
Bb C
( )
Yes I'm gonna shine on you
D
I will shine on you (shine on you)
C
I will shine on you (shine on you)
Bm
I will shine on you (shine on you)
Bb C D
I will shine, shine, shine on you
