Shine Your Light On Me

[Verse 1]
   G
I remember once I broke down in the 
country
       Em
I was sixteen with a broken heart in
 bloom
       D
And I walked home through the pines
                       G
Nobody saw me but the moon
      G
By sunrise I could hear the church 
bells ringing
   Em
I got there as the saints were 
marching in
   D
I sat down on the back row
                           G
And heard the story once again


[Chorus]
         Em
And the servants of the secret fire
      D
Were gathered there
     Am            G
The embers of the ages
       C             D
Like a living prayer
     Em                          
And all at once I saw the shadows 
  D
flee
  C    D     C   Am G      Em
Shine your light on me, on me
       D
Be a light unto my path
                    G
And a lamp unto my feet

[Verse 2]
       G
They flew us down to oklahoma city
          Em
Yeah, but I could hardly stand there
 on the stage
    D
So sick I couldn't speak
                         G
And the fever wouldn't break
              G
But when I stepped up to the 
microphone I heard it
             Em
It was the voices of the brothers at
 my side
            D                 C
They were singing out my song
                          G
When the song in me had died


[Chorus]
Em  D    C    D     C   D  Em
   Oh, shine your light on me

Em C Em C

   Em                            
Somebody come and get me when I'm 
       C
gone
   Em                            
Somebody come and get me when I'm 
                              C
gone, get me when I'm gone


[Verse 3]
       G
Two years ago I drove into a 
darkness
   Em
I straightened every curve on cane 
ridge road
             D
And I could hear the flapping wings
                       G
Of every devil I have known
          G
And the inside of my car was like a 
casket
              Em
But then it flooded with a blaze of 
sacred light
         D
She was calling me back home
                          G     D
And as I pulled into the drive


[Chorus]
             Em
I knew the servants of the secret 
fire
      D
Were gathered there
     Am            G
The embers of the ages
       C             D
Like a living prayer
          Em                       
She was standing on the porch where
          D
 I could see
  C    D     C   Am G      Em
Shine your light on me, on me
       D
Be a light unto my path
                    G
And a lamp unto my feet
           D                C
Oh, be a light unto my path
                    C     G
And a lamp unto my feet
