C Em Am G x4

 
C       Em        Am       G
 Take away my inhibitions 
C      Em         Am       G
 Take away my solitude
C        Em             Am       G
 Fire me up with your resistance
       C          Em  Am  G
Put me in the mood

C          Em                Am     G
 Storm the walls around this prison
C          Em                Am     G
 Leave the inmates, Free the guards
C        Em            Am        
 Deal me up another future
           G         C        Em Am G
From some brand new deck of cards

[CHORUS]

F               G
  Take the chip off of my shoulder
C        E7          Am    
  Smooth out all the lines
Dm                                    G F Em Dm
  Take me out among the rustling pines
           C    Em Am G
Till it shines
               C    Em Am G
Ah, till it shines



C        Em          Am       G
 Like an echo down a canyon
C       Em             Am       G
 Never coming back as clear
C       Em               Am       G
 Lately I just judge the distance
         C       Em  Am G
Not the words I hear

C          Em                Am     G
 I've been too long on these islands
C          Em            Am       G
 I've been far too long alone
C          Em               Am       G
 I've been too long without summer
        C          Em  Am G
In this winter home

[CHORUS]

F                 G
  Still if we can make the effort
C       E7       Am    
  If we take the time
Dm                                   G F Em Dm
  Maybe we can leave this much behind

           C    Em Am G
Till it shines
               C    Em Am G
Mmm, till it shines

G  O

[CHORUS]

F                  G
  See the rich man lost and lonely
C           E7    Am    
  Watch him as he dines
Dm                                         G F Em Dm
  Sitting there just testing all the wines 
                                   

           C    Em Am G
Till it shines
               C    Em Am G
Mmm, till it shines...
C Em Am G...
