Burn And Shine

E

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

          C#m      E              C#m        E
Let them burn and shine, let them burn and shine
           E                        B
Let that last long dance just be yours and mine
         C#m         A                   E
Let them spin their wheels, turn their pages
 C#m          A                    E
Break their knives on the rock of ages
        B
Baby, we'll be fine
           A
Let them burn, burn and shine

     E                          A   E
Well no one ever whistled when you walked by
   E                                                B
Because you never caught the corner of the public eye
   E                    A   E
You left town, you got one goodbye
                                 B      E
From the sign at the Frederick county line
         A                                    E
Oh your sister was a looker, she was tall and wild
                                           B
She had a star-crossed lover on a moonlit mile
          E                        A   E
Then she met a politician and she had his child
                                         B     E
It takes the bottom of a bottle just to make her smile

          C#m      E              C#m        E
Let them burn and shine, let them burn and shine
           E                        B
Let that last long dance just be yours and mine
         C#m         A                   E
Let them spin their wheels, turn their pages
 C#m          A                  E
Break their knives on the rock of ages
        B
Baby, we'll be fine
           A                   E
Let them burn, burn and shine
