Nothing Grows In Shadows

         D     G                         A
Hey, you kids, bullyin' the kids down at your school
                               G
One of these days you're gonna grow up, be ashamed
         D                    G                   A
Who gave you the right to de- cide who is and who ain't cool
                      G
Who could sit at your table and be on your team and play your games

[Chorus]
        G                   D
Let 'em shine, shine like a diamond
         A                                     D
Give 'em time and you'll find there's no cover rose
      G                       D    G
God's light shines for every- body
              D        A                D
So get out-ta His way, nothin' grows in shadows

         D        G                 A
Hey, you fathers, screamin' at your kids from the bleachers
                           G
Sayin' "quit actin' like a sissy, suck it up and win"
      D           G                 A
Maybe you ought'a stop and think a- bout what you're teachin'
                       G
Yeah, you talk about a loser, I don't think it's them

[Chorus]
        G                   D
Let 'em shine, shine like a diamond
         A                                     D
Give 'em time and you'll find there's no cover rose
      G                       D    G
God's light shines for every- body
              D        A                D
So get out-ta His way, nothin' grows in shadows

      G
Well, I aint sayin' I aint been a shadow myself
  D
A dark cloud that rained on somebody else
A
Well, I learned a lesson that I need to tell
    D
The doctor that saved my mommas life,
helped beat her cancer, made sure she got well,
                                            G
was a kid I went to school with all my life
Man, I used to give him hell

[Chorus]
        G                   D
Let 'em shine, shine like a diamond
         A                                     D
Give 'em time and you'll find there's no cover rose
      G                       D    G
God's light shines for every- body
              D        A                D
So get out-ta His way, nothin' grows in shadows

G              D        A                        D
Oh, get out-ta His way, nothin' grows in shadows
