Shine your light

Written by Robbie Robertson

	  		F#m			       D 
The cry of the city like a siren's song 
F#m				D 
Wailing over the rooftops the whole night long 
F#m			          D 
Saw a shooting star like a diamond in the sky 
E 
Must be someone's soul passing by 
 
F#m 
These are the streets 
		D 
Where we used to run where your Papa's from 
F#m 
These are the days 
	         D 
Where you become what you become 
F#m 
These are the streets 
		D		 
Where the story's told 
 
The truth unfolds 
       E 
Darkness settles in	Oh-Oh 
 
        D		A       E	         F#m 
Shine your light down on me 
        D	          A	E	F#m 
Lift me up so I can see 
        D		A      E		F#m 
Shine your light when you're gone 
        D		     A 
Give me the strength 
	    E	     A		D ? A  
To carry on, carry on 
 
F#m	 
Don't wanna be a hero 
	          D 
Just an everyday man 
F#m		              D 
Trying to do the job the very best he can 
F#m			         D 
But now it's like living on borrowed time 
     E 
Out on the rim, over the line 
 
F#m			            D 
Always tempting fate like a game of chance 
F#m				     D 
Never wanna stick around to the very last dance 
F#m			        D 
Sometimes I stumble and take a hard fall 
     E 
Loose hold your grip off the wall 
 
 
       D		A       E	        F#m 
Shine your light down on me 
       D	          A  E           F#m 
Lift me up so I can see 
        D		A      E		F#m 
Shine your light when you're gone 
        D		    A	      E 
Give me the strength to carry on 
     			D ? A 
Carry on 
 
 
Bm			         E 
I thought I saw him walking by the side of the road 
D				A 
Maybe trying to find his way home 
	     Bm 
He's here but not here     
	      E 
He's gone but not gone 
        D			 E		E 
Just hope he knows if I get lost 
 
         D		A       E	        F#m 
Shine your light down on me 
        D	          A  E           F#m 
Lift me up so I can see 
        D		A      E	              F#m 
Shine your light when you're gone 
         D		  A	      E 
Give me the strength to carry on 
	A 
Carry on
