[Verse 1]
         C                Em          F            G
When the long hard day is done in the quiet of the evening,
         C                   Em              F              G
she will come home to me and smile, she will lay down by my side;
        Am                Em           F               G
then my cares will float away with the passing of each moment
        Am             Em          F                G             G
and the worries of the day seem to gather wings and fly;    

[Chorus]
      C   C7                        F   F
Shine down, she lets her love shine down, she can comfort me at
C                                 G                       C      G
night and she can help me see the light when there's all around.
      C  C7                         F   F
Shine down, she lets her love shine down and if my whole world falls
C                             G                             C     C
apart she'll just open up her heart and let here love shine down.

[Verse 2]
        C              Em           F                G
She can move me with a tear, suffer endless pain and sorrow,
          C                  Em              F                G
she never hides, she's never down, she never tries to lay the blame.
        Am           Em            F             G
She can wash away my fear, give me hope for my tomorrow,
          Am               Em           F                    G      G
she's the actress, I'm the clown and we know how to play the game.

[Chorus]
      C  C7                         F   F
Shine down, she lets her love shine down and if my whole world falls
C                             G                             C     A
apart she'll just open up her heart and let here love shine down.

[Verse 3]
         D              F#m         G              A
From the deepest Winter snow to the days of yellow roses,
         D               F#m          G                A
from the sweetest Summer wine tot the time when Autumn calls,
       Bm               F#m      G             A
as the seasons come and go and another chapter closes,
          Bm                F#m           G              A        A
she takes all things in her stride, never falters, never falls.

[End-Chorus]
      D   D7                        G   G
Shine down, she lets her love shine down, she can comfort me at
D                                 A                       D         A
night and she can help me see the light when there's all around.
      D  D7                         G   G
Shine down, she lets her love shine down and if my whole world falls
D                             A                             G     G      D
apart she'll just open up her heart and let here love shine down.
