[Intro] E [Chorus]
         A      B                E               A
Shine It On, my man, forget your troubles if you can

     F#m                B              E            B
I'll hold you 'till the dawn, Shine It On, Shine It On

            A               B               E          A
You've been too long on the road and you're ready to explode

         F#m             B              E
Come and lighten up your load, Shine It On.

E                                 A
We had love and not much more but dreams just for free

B                                       E
We sure got lost there, dad and mom and me

                                           A                  F#m
He'd let me steer on straight a ways as we drove from town to town

   B                                                     E
We knew that daddy's gypsy blood wouldn't let him settle down.

           E                          A                   F#m
There were times he'd sit right down, just plain hang his head

         B                                         E
But he'd always lift it up and smile whenever mama said.
[Chorus]
F                                 Bb
Papa's gone but Lord his blood is running through my veins

C                                             F
Mama's gone to find him, so she can't ease my pain

                                        Bb        G
Another woman holds me now, in a little different way

C                                              F
Now I know why papa smiled, when he heard mama say.
[Chorus 2]
         Bb     C                F               Bb
Shine It On, my man, forget your troubles if you can

     G                  C              F            C
I'll hold you 'till the dawn, Shine It On, Shine It On

            Bb              C               E          Bb
You've been too long on the road and you're ready to explode

         G               C              F
Come and lighten up your load, Shine It On.
