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)
D C G
There ain't no coal comin' out of that shaft
D C G
There's rust all over the railroad tracks
C G D
You can't see nothing but a big old black
G
Cloud up in the sky
G D
And if the good Lord don't see fit
G D
To send a little sun down on these pines
C G
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)
D C G
There ain't no coal comin' out of that shaft
D C G
There's rust all over the railroad tracks
C G D
You can't see nothing but a big old black
G
Cloud up in the sky
G D
And if the good Lord don't see fit
G D
To send a little sun down on these pines
C G
That's fine
D G
Old Leonard gonna make us shine
D G
He's gonna make us shine
D C G
There ain't no coal comin' out of that shaft
D C G
There's rust all over the railroad tracks
C G D
You can't see nothing but a big old black
G
Cloud up in the sky
G D
And if the good Lord don't see fit
G D
To send a little sun down on these pines
C G
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
