Randy Houser, "Shine"
D A G D, D A G D, D G, D G
(verse)
D
Behind the tar paper shack back in the holler,
G
Old man shuckin' corn and coilin' copper,
D
He's about the only business in town,
G
That ain't been boughted up 'fore the bank shut down.
A
At first glance, you might think times are hard
(chorus)
DCG
There ain't no coal comin' out of that shaft
DCG
There's rust all over the railroad tracks
CGD
You can't see nothing but a big old black
G
Cloud up in the sky
GD
And if the good Lord don't see fit
GD
To send a little sun down on these pines
CG
That's fine
D G, D G
Old Leonard gonna make us shine
D
Way back and before these mines were tapped
G
He had a bigger dot there on the map
D
Who knows, it might get better again
G
And who cares that train ain't rollin' in
A
Look beyond, they're comin' 'round the mountain
(chorus)
DCG
There ain't no coal comin' out of that shaft
DCG
There's rust all over the railroad tracks
CGD
You can't see nothing but a big old black
G
Cloud up in the sky
GD
And if the good Lord don't see fit
GD
To send a little sun down on these pines
CG
That's fine
DG
Old Leonard gonna make us shine
DG
He's gonna make us shine
DCG
There ain't no coal comin' out of that shaft
DCG
There's rust all over the railroad tracks
CGD
You can't see nothing but a big old black
G
Cloud up in the sky
GD
And if the good Lord don't see fit
GD
To send a little sun down on these pines
CG
That's fine, that'll be just fine
D G, D G
Old Leonard gonna make us... shine.
(out)
D G, D G
Old Leonard gonna make us shine
D G, D G
Old Leonard's gonna make us shine
D G, D G, D C B A G
Gonna make us shine, (spoken) make us shine Leonard
