Shine On
James Blunt
Capo 7th Fret
[Intro]
C Am Fmaj7 G6 C
[Verse 1]
C                       Am
Are they calling for our last dance?    
Fmaj7            C C/B Am Fmaj7      C C/B Am Fmaj7
I see it in your eyes        in your eyes
C                   Am
Same old moves, for a new romance
Fmaj7                    C C/B Am Fmaj7       G
I could use the same old lies       but I'll sing
[Chorus 1]
        C
Shine on, just shine on
           G
Close your eyes and they'll all be gone
         Am
They can scream and shout that they've been sold out,
         Fmaj7
but it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on
           C
So shine on, just shine on
          G
With your smile just as bright as the sun
              Am
Cause they're all just slaves to the Gods they've made
    Fmaj7                       G           G
But you and I, just shone, just shone
[Verse 2]
C                       Am
And when silence greets my last goodbye
             Fmaj7           C C/B Am Fmaj7
The words I need are in your eyes
         G
And I'll sing
[Chorus 2]
             C
And shine on, just shine on
           G
Close your eyes and they'll all be gone
         Am
They can scream and shout that they've been sold out,
         Fmaj7
but it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on
           C
So shine on, just shine on
          G
With your smile just as bright as the sun
              Am
Cause they're all just slaves to the Gods they've made
    Fmaj7                       G
But you and I, just shone, just shone

[Chorus 3]
           C
So shine on, just shine on
           G
Close your eyes and they'll all be gone
         Am
They can scream and shout that they've been sold out,
         Fmaj7
but it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on
           C
So shine on, just shine on
          G
With your smile just as bright as the sun
              Am
Cause they're all just slaves to the Gods they've made
    Fmaj7                       G       G   C
But you and I, just shone, just shone
