Shine On Silver Sun by Strawbs
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: G C G C
G
Once I sat upon a hill
C
To watch the world go by
G
My friend the young magician
C
Had forbidden me to cry
Am7
But I was the comedian
D Dsus2
With the laughs in short supply
CHORUS:
G C D
Shine on silver sun
G C D
Shine on everyone
G C D
Shine on silver sun
C G C G
Shine on
G
The sunlight filtered softly through
C
The pale and watery sky
G
To catch the mirrored salmon
C
As it rose to take the fly
Am7
The flowers on the riverbank
D Dsus2
Were left alone to die
CHORUS:
G C D
Shine on silver sun
G C D
Shine on everyone
G C D
Shine on silver sun
C G C G
Shine on
BRIDGE:
D
The church bells sounded midnight
Am7 D Am7
As I rose to say goodbye
A solitary tear fell from
D
The corner of my eye_____
CHORUS:
G C D
Shine on silver sun
G C D
Shine on everyone
G C D
Shine on silver sun
G C D
Shine on everyone
G C D
Shine on silver sun
G C D
Shine on everyone
G C D
Shine on silver sun
C G C G
Shine on
C G C G
Shine on
