Burn And Shine

E

[Verse 1]
 E                           A  E
Never had enough to be the favorite 
son
And so I never had enough to 
            B
disappoint no one
E                                 
Everything I ever done, I never 
A   E
gave too much
Maybe then I coulda said that I was 
  B    E
just washed up
        A                          
Oh my brother was a soldier, he was
             E
 strong and true
Mama said he was a member of the 
         B
chosen few
        E                          
Well I guess he never felt he ever 
 A   E
got his due
He wrote a note and pulled a rope 
             B        E
around his neck last June

[Chorus]
          C#m      E              
Let them burn and shine, let them 
C#m        E
burn and shine

           E                    
Let that last long dance just be 
    B
yours and mine

         C#m         A         
Let them spin their wheels, turn 
          E
their pages
 C#m          A                 
Break their knives on the rock of 
   E
ages
        B
Baby, we'll be fine
           A
Let them burn, burn and shine

[Verse 2]
     E                          A 
Well no one ever whistled when you
  E
 walked by
   E                               
Because you never caught the corner
                 B
 of the public eye
   E                    A   E
You left town, you got one goodbye
From the sign at the Frederick 
  B      E
county line

         A                         
Oh your sister was a looker, she 
           E
was tall and wild
She had a star-crossed lover on a 
         B
moonlit mile
          E                      
Then she met a politician and she 
  A   E
had his child
It takes the bottom of a bottle just
     B     E
 to make her smile

[Chorus]
          C#m      E              
Let them burn and shine, let them 
C#m        E
burn and shine
           E                    
Let that last long dance just be 
    B
yours and mine

         C#m         A         
Let them spin their wheels, turn 
          E
their pages
 C#m          A                  
Break their knives on the rock of 
E
ages
        B
Baby, we'll be fine
           A                   E
Let them burn, burn and shine
