Never Shine Sun Greg Brown, from One Night... Transcribed by Greg Moverly C F C Oh the night is long when I'm all alone C G C Long as a wire looking for a telephone C F I want to take all those nights C Where we was lonesome and blue C G C String them all back together and spend them all with you. [chorus:] C F Never shine sun, C Let the moon stay above G I wanna keep on keepin' C On lovin' my love. Hey, Mr. Rooster, get yourself a backpack, Catch yourself a night flight Grab yourself a catnap Hey, Mr. Songbird, go visit your cousin That pretty one you've been missin' I think she lives down in Tucson. [repeat chorus] Go shine on Canada on the windchill factor Go shine on Russia - help them build another tractor Shine on LA - climb up and down the charts Shine on Washington, D.C. and warm up their cold hearts. Shine on Shreveport, St. Louie or Kokomo Jus' don't shine here for another week or so. [repeat chorus] There's a drop of dew hanging on each blade of grass Hang on and tremble - don't let the night pass Light on the horizon - linger on and on Oh, it's jus' some city - it can't be the dawn. [repeat chorus] ----------------------------------------------------------- Revision by Brett Huggett This song is just two chords, Dmaj9 and Asus9. It is in drop D and the Dmaj9 is the intro chord and then Asus9 on the first lyric. Then it just drops back and forth between these chords.
