A The evening sun went down I tried to rise and shine I didn't feel so good I prayed for extra time C And I could see a light D Breaking through the night A Shining down on me I had to make a stand To find myself again 'Cos I was on my knees And I was near the end And then I saw a light Breaking through the night Shining down on me Chorus: A Let it shine on me Let it shine on me Let it shine on me C G A# F C G D Shine on, shine on, shine on, shine on I opened up my eyes To see the morning sun And now the road is clear And I am free to run Yeah, I can see the light It's burning so bright Shining on down on me Shining on down on me And it was the light That took me through the night Shining down on me Shining down on me Chorus: Let it shine on me Let it shine You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA A# C D F G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
