==INTRO==

D  C  Bm  Bb


==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
Together they would blanket the world with light
C       D
But the moon had a shadow, he felt like a liar
     C
The sun was the only one who carried the fire
     G
The sun saw this, she kept on glowing
Bb
Bowing to the moon, never saying, "you owe me"


==CHORUS==
(C)            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
I will shine on you

(C) D  C  Bm  Bb


==VERSE==
(C)     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
-- I see who you really are
(C)           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
I will shine on you
(C)    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


==BRIDGE== 
G
Think of the people that you love the most
Bb
Send them your light and hold them close
      (C) D                     C      
They will shine on you, I will shine on you
G
No matter the distance, the space, or the time
(A)  B
--- Love travels in the speed of light
(C)     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
Yes I'm gonna shine on you
(C)     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)
