  Sharing with us what he knows.
Em        D                G
  Shining eyes are big and blue
Em        D                C
  And all around him water flows
     Am                        C
This world to him is new, this world
 to him is new

[Rep. Intro]

Em   D       G    Em   D      G
  To touch a face.  To kiss a smile
Em    D           C
  New eyes see no race
    Am                       C    
The essence of a child.  The

essence . . .

[Chorus]
C           G                D

born to shine.  And he's born to 
    D
radiate
C           G             D      
  He's born to live, he's born to
 Em            C          G      
 love but we'll teach him how to 
D
hate

[Rep. Intro]

[Verse]
Em         D            G     
  And true love it is a rock. 
Em         D         G
  Smoothed over by a stream

Em           D            C     
  There's no ticking of a clock,
            Am
 that truly measures what that means
      C
Truly measures what that means
Em         D                 G   
  And this thing we call our 
 Em          D               G
time,  I heard a brilliant woman say
Em                       D       
  She said you know it's crazy 
            C
how I want to try to capture mine
          Am                       
I think I love this woman's way, I 
        C                        D
think I love this woman's . . .

[Chorus]
C         G             D       
  Way she shimmers, the way she 
Em      C            G   D
shines.  The way she radiates
C             G          D       
  The way she lives, the way she 
Em     C            G     D
loves.  The way she never hates

[Bridge]
Am                          C
Sometimes I think of all of this 
surrounding me
G                      D
I know it all as being mine
Am                        C
But she kisses me and she wraps 
herself around me
G                               D
She gives me love, she gives me time
  yeah, yeah
           C          G    
And I feel fine, yeah yeah.  
  D             Em
Mmmmmmm-hmmmm Mmmmmmm
       C       G       D
I feel fine

[Verse]
Em    D             G       Em  
  But time I cannot change.   So
 D                 G
 here's to looking back
Em           D                   
  You know I drink a whole bottle
       C
 of my pride and I toast to change
              Am                   
To keep these demons off my back,  
               C
Just get these demons off my back. 
‘Cause I

  I want to live, I want to love
C                  G            
  I want to try to learn not to 
D
hate. Try not to hate
C               G              D
