[Verse 1]
G# C C# D#
Heard my brother tell a story about a world gone mad
G# C C# D#
People building their own cages rage at thoughts of liberation
G# C C# D#
About one girl and about one boy so lost in each other's joy
G# C C# D#
that he can only say right on and she can only shine on
[Chorus]
G# D# C#
Shine on
[Verse 2]
G# C C# D#
Meanwhile all around the people tear each other down
G# C C# D#
But the two unable to not appreciate the coming of another day
G# C C# D#
Cuz with each rebirth a renewed gift of sun and earth
G# C C# D#
So right on my mother earth and shine on my sun
[Chorus]
G# D# C#
My sun
[Verse 3]
G# C C# D#
And while the world tears itself apart with its certainty
G# C C# D#
The two just sit back in the wonder and the joy
G# C C# D#
Of the last artifact of beauty
G# C C# D#
We have yet to destroy
[Chorus]
G# D# C#
And we give thanks
