//I'm 80% sure these chords are correct.
But Ultimate Guitar moved some of the chords around the screen,
so just match them up with the lyrics
- The F#/G is this chord: (I didn't know what chord it was so I called it that)
-----3------| \
-----3------| \
-----0------| \ Hit the first 3/4 strings heavy and hardly play the last 3/2

[Intro] Am G
[Verse]
Am
Theres place between waking and sleeping
D
A space where the land meets the sea
G F#/G Em
Thats where the shadows are keeping
C D
The shine that you once kept for me
Am
Oh the stars are all laughing and twinkling
D
In a language they share with the moon
G F#/G Em
Thats when my feelings start thinking
C D
Of the shine thats abandoned my moon

[Chorus]
Em C
The shine, the shine
G C
That dazzled from the earth's sun to mine
Em C
The shine, the shine
G D
Your luminescent smile is sublime
C Em Am
And it goes from your bones deep within
G C
For your eyes were born on your skin
Em C G
The shine, the shine, the shine
[Verse]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
B
Gotta get away, got to
Take some time
G
Nothing that I say, seems to
Change your mind
B
Everywhere I look is just a canyon
C A
But the sound will never shine
G C
Shine, shine, shine
G C
Shine, shine, shine
[Outro]
C Em Am
And it goes from your bones deep within
G C
For your eyes were born on your skin
Em C G
The shine, the shine, the shine
