--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 (Bb C) ==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 (Bb C) ==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 ==OUTRO== D D D D C Bm Bb
