[F] [Cm] [Gm]
[C] Well, we live in [N] some wild times right now.
This is a song that kind of speaks to that.
We played a show in a small town last night,
and you get the feeling of the polarization.
It was a small crowd.
At one point, someone made an announcement,
kind of just talking about their religion,
and a couple people in the crowd got all quiet,
and then another person started smashing the government,
and the other people got quiet,
and there's just this tension you can feel in your skin.
It's very hard to reach out,
but it's the only thing to do.
So this is a [F#m] song [C] that speaks to that.
One of my favorites.
[G] Oh, [Am]
[F]
I'm afraid [C] to be [G] afraid
[C] Got [F] [C]
me off of my [G] feet for a while
I think it's time for me to [Am] start walking again
Stop [F] running away [G] from me
[C] The next time you see [G] me
I will be singing [C] [Am] a new song
I [F] am
[C] learning
Shine on, shine on, shine [G]
on
There'll [Am] be [C] time enough [G] for darkness
[C] When everything's gone
Shine on, [F] shine [G]
on
[Am] There is work [G] to be done in the dark [C] before dawn
It's [G]
[C] [Am]
[F] [C]
[G] [Em] [C]
been a hard night to [G] give in
And it ain't easy living [Am] in hard times
[C] I [F] know it's weighing [Am] on [G] you, but
[C] The next time you see [G] me
I'll be up and lifting
[Am] And I will give you hope
[G] I am learning [Am] as [G] I go
[C] Shine on, shine on, [G] shine on
There'll [Am] be time enough [G] for [C] darkness
When everything's gone
Shine on, [G] shine on
There [Am] is work to [C] be [G] done in the dark [C] before dawn
[G]
[Am]
[Dm] [Am] [F] [C]
[G] [C]
I know how dark it [G] seems
I feel it coming up inside of me
[Am] And I feel that in you too
[F] Everything
[G] The [C] next time you see [G] me
We'll both be laughing
[Am] Or just to be alive
[F] We are learning [G] to shine
[C] Shine on, shine on, [G] shine on
There'll [Am] be time [G] enough for darkness
When [C] everything's gone
Shine on, [G] shine on
There [A] is work to [G] be done in the dark [C] before dawn
Shine on, [G] shine on
There'll be time enough for darkness
When everything's gone
[N]
Shine on, shine on
There is work to be done in the dark before dawn
There is work to be done
So you've got to shine
[C]
On
[Dm] [C] [N]
