SHIMMER

Shawn Mullins

drum intro + guitar lick 1

Em D G
        Sharing with us what he knows
Em D G
        Shining eyes are big and blue
Em D C Cmaj7
        And all around him water flows          
Am
This world to him is new
Cmaj7
This world to him is new

guitar lick 2

C G D Em
        He's born to shimmer, he's born to shine
C G D D4 D
        He's born to radiate                   
C G D Em
        He's born to live, he's born to love
C G D
        But we'll teach him how to hate

guitar lick 1

And this thing they call our time
I heard a brilliant woman say
She said you know it's crazy
How I want to capture mine
I think I love this woman's way
I think I love this woman's --

Way she shimmers, the way she shines
The way she radiates
The way she lives, the way she loves
The way she never hates

bridge

Am C
        Sometimes I think of all this that can surround me
G D D4 D
        I know it all as being mine               
Am C
        But she kisses me and and she      wraps herself around me
G D
        She gives me love, she gives me time
D4 D D4 C
        Yeahh.... and I feel fine      
G D Em C G D
Hey... yeah, hey, hey, yeah, I feel fine               

guitar lick 2

Em D G
        But time I cannot change
Em D G
        So here's to looking back
Em D Cmaj7
        You know I drink a whole bottle of my pride
And I'd toast to change
Am
To keep these demons off my back
Cmaj7
To keep these demons off my back

Cause I want to shimmer, I want to shine
I want to radiate
I want to live, I want to love
I want to try to learn not to hate
Try not to hate

We're born to shimmer
We're born to shine
We're born to radiate
We're born to live, we're born to love
We're born to never hate

repeat words of last chorus spoken

D D4 D
