Shining Down
Jesse Malin


Verse:
C                   G
     We never got a break
C                         G
     We lived with our mistakes
Am                 F                       C
Disguising all the cake and some cold heartbreak
C                G
     Sentimental kids
C                       G
     With movies in our heads
Am               F                  C
We never figured out why she had to go

Chorus:
C             Am                G      G
     Keep on shining down on my life
C            C               F         F
     Keep on shining down on me

Verse:
C                      G
     The hours were to blame
C                            G
     They changed the family name
Am            F                      C
Another sad refrain but I won’t look back
C                    G
     I found another path
C                       G
     Through the broken glass
Am             F                       C
Everything was trash but it all worked out

Chorus:
C             Am                 G        G
      Keep on shining down on my life
C             Am                 G        G
      Keep on shining down on my life
C             C               F           F
      Keep on shining down on me

Bridge:
C      G      C     G     Am     F      C

Verse:
C                        G
      I act like nothing hurts
C                     G
      A bar becomes a church
Am            F                         C
A limousine a hearse and you don’t look back
C                           G
      The one that couldn’t fail
C                   G
      Married or in jail
Am                F                         C
Had moments of success in the shadow of the best

Chorus:
C             Am                 G         G
      Keep on shining down on my life
C             Am                 G         G
      Keep on shining down on my life
C             C               F            F
      Keep on shining down on me
C             Am                 G         G
      Keep on shining down on my life
C             C               F            F
      Keep on shining down on me
