David Allan Coe - Shine It On
Capo 1
E
Chorus:
ABEA
Shine It On, my man, forget your troubles if you can
F#mBEB
I'll hold you 'till the dawn, Shine It On, Shine It On
ABEA
You've been too long on the road and you're ready to explode
F#mBE
Come and lighten up your load, Shine It On.
EA
We had love and not much more but dreams just for free
BE
We sure got lost there, dad and mom and me
AF#m
He'd let me steer on straight a ways as we drove from town to town
BE
We knew that daddy's gypsy blood wouldn't let him settle down.
EAF#m
There were times he'd sit right down, just plain hang his head
BE
But he'd always lift it up and smile whenever mama said.
Chorus:
FBb
Papa's gone but Lord his blood is running through my veins
CF
Mama's gone to find him, so she can't ease my pain
BbG
Another woman holds me now, in a little different way
CF
Now I know why papa smiled, when he heard mama say.
Chorus2:
BbCFBb
Shine It On, my man, forget your troubles if you can
GCFC
I'll hold you 'till the dawn, Shine It On, Shine It On
BbCEBb
You've been too long on the road and you're ready to explode
GCF
Come and lighten up your load, Shine It On.
