[G] [C]
Yeah, because then Bonnie Raitt came in, right?
She says, what are you going to do, Shine a Light?
And I said, yeah, right, [D]
where's Chuck to play the [C] piano part?
And I can't remember [G] it.
I can't remember if I ever played it or not.
[Fm] Then I remember that I wrote the song on the piano, but that was like 25 years [F] ago and I haven't [C] played since.
I saw you stretched out in [Bm] room 1009
[Am] With a smile on your face and [G] a tear right in your eye
I [F] could not seem to get [C] a line on you
[Gm] My [F] sweet honey love
[C]
Lover jewelry [Bm] jangling down the street
[A] I was on a tour with them when [G] I was 20 but not playing.
I went along helping road manage Buddy Guy and Junior Wells.
Back [F] in 1970, I met them and [C] hung out for two months behind Keith's amp.
[G] They didn't even know I played and then I was in my [Db] college years and next time I [C] saw them,
I was [G] playing and making records and we've seen each other off and on [C] since then.
[G] This is a [Abm] thrill to finally, 37 years later, get to play with them.
[G] So [C] I was going like, 25 years ago, I don't even know what key it's in, so I just died.
[G] It must be in C because I can hardly [C] play it.
So how's it go?
You close our door and your [Am] late night friends will leave ya
[G] In the cold, grey dawn, [F] I could not seem to get a [C] high on you
[G]
[F] Honey lover
Something like that.
[Eb] So eventually [G] I kind of figured it out so I [F] could play it for Bonnie to kind of run [C] through the lines.
May [E] the good [C] Lord [G] shine a light on you
[F] Make every song you sing
A [G] fab of a tune.
It was a blast, [F] you know, he makes it really [C] comfortable, he's really professional.
I've known him for a long [G] time but it's really the first time we've ever sung together so that [Fm] was,
sharing a love of the blues and this [C] history of what they [G] mean to me and
how many [F] blues artists we know and love [C] together.
It was a real honor to get to sing that song.
May the good Lord [G] shine a light on you
[F] Small world, like the evening [C]
sun.
Alright, keep it rolling.
[Am]
[F] [G] [C]
[Am] [F] I [G] got to sing Dead Flowers the [Am] other night, [G] so I'm excited to be able [Am] to jump in.
Next time I'll [F] play guitar, tell [Eb] Ronnie and Keith to look [G] out.
[C]
[Bm]
[Am] [F]
[G] [C]
Thank you!
Bonnie Raitt!
[Em] [Bb]
[E] [Am]
[G] Hi, thank you!
Thank you, Merry [Bb] Christmas!
