Shining Light Tab

Capo 3rd Fret


                                 
   Roman candles that burn in the night
                     
Yeah, you are a shining light
                               
   You lit a torch in the empty night
                     
Yeah, you are a shining light
                    
Yeah, you light up my life


                                   
   You’ve always been a thorn in their side
                        
But to me you’re a shining light
                            
You arrive and the night is alive
                     
Yeah, you are a shining light
                    
Yeah, you light up my life


           
We made our connection
                         
A full on chemical reaction
                          
Brought by dark divine intervention
                     
Yeah, you are a shining light


               
A constellation once seen
                 
Over Royal David’s city
                      
An epiphany you burn so pretty
                     
Yeah, you are a shining light


                                       
   You are a force, you are a constant source
                    
Yeah you are a shining light
                          
Incandescent in the darkest night
                      
Yeah you are a shining light


                           
My mortal blood I would sacrifice
                            
For you are a shining light
                         
Sovereign bride of the infinite
                      
Yeah, you are a shining light
                    
Yeah, you light up my life

Yeah, you are a shining light


                      
And these are days you often say
                            
There’s nothing that we can’t do
        
Beneath a canopy of stars
                
I’d shed blood for you


                    
The north star in the firmament
                  
You shine the most bright
                         
I’ve seen you draped in an electric veil
                   
Shrouded in celestial light


           
We made our connection
                         
A full on chemical reaction

Yeah, you are a shining light
                     
Yeah, you are a shining light.
