LYRICS
The cry of the cit y, like a (Eb)sir en’s song
wail in’ ov er the roof tops the (Eb)whole night long.
Saw a shoot ing star
like a (Eb)dia mond in the sky.
(F6)Must be some one’s (F)soul
pass in’ (F)by.
These are the streets
where we (Eb)used to run, where your Pop is from.
These are the days
where (Eb)you be come what you be come.
These are the streets
where the (Eb)stor y’s told, the truth un folds and dark ness (F)set tles in.
Oh,
shine your (Bb)light
down on (Gm7)me.
Lift me (Bb)up
so I can (Gm7)see, umm.
Shine your (Bb)light
when you’re (Gm7)gone.
Give me (Bb)the strength
to (Gm)car (F)ry on, (Bb)car ry on.
Don’t wan na be a her o.
Just an (Eb)ev ’ry day man
try’n to do the job
the ver y best he can.
But now it’s like liv in’ on
bor rowed time.
Out on (F)the rim,
ov er (F)the line.
Al ways tempt in’ fate
like a (Eb)game of chance.
Nev er wan na stick a round to the (Eb)ver y last dance.
Some times you stum ble and (Eb)take a hard fall.
Lose hold (F)your grip,
off the (F)wall.
Shine your (Bb)light
down on (Gm7)me.
Lift me (Bb)up
so I can (Gm7)see, umm.
Shine your (Bb)light
