(verse)
 
G 
November of '43 
G 
On a boat coming 'cross the sea 
C/G       D/G              C   
He left a boy, came back a man 
G 
She started running when she saw his face 
G 
It'd been 655 days 
C/G       D/G      C 
Since she held his hand 
Em             G 
He got down on one knee 
Em            G 
And he pulled out that ring 
Em                G 
That he bought in Aberdeen 
            D 
And when it hit that New York sky 



   G  
It shined just like a spotlight 
  Am 
A star up in the night sky 
    C                                         Am Em C D, 
The kind of thing that takes your breath away 
    G 
Her eyes sparkled like that diamond 
     Am 
With love beaming from 'em 
    C                                D 
The kind of light that's never gonna fade 
           G  
It's gonna shine 



(verse)
 
G 
For the next 55 years 
G 
Through the laughter and the tears 
C/G        D/C              C    
My grandma always wore that band 
G 
Through atom bombs and a baby boom 
G 
A Dr. King and a man on the moon 
C/G         D/G      C  
No it never left her hand 
Em             G 
On the day she passed away 
Em               G 
Mama put it on a chain 
Em              G  
Now and then on special days 
          D  
Mom would hang it on her neck 




             G 
And it would shine just like a spotlight 
  Am 
A star up in the night sky 
    C                                         Am Em C D, 
The kind of thing that takes your breath away 
    G 
Her eyes sparkled like that diamond 
     Am 
With love beaming from 'em 
    C                                D                 
The kind of light that's never gonna fade 
           G 
It's gonna shine shine shine 
Am                 C  D 
Shine shine shine, oh 



(bridge)
 
Bm 
Mama said one of these days 
C              G 
I know why she gave me that ring 
Am             D/G          G 
Sittin' here I know she was right 
  Bm 
Oh, it's not the biggest stone you've ever seen 
    C                  G  
But girl I can promise you one thing 
Am              D  
That for rest of your life 



           G 
It's gonna shine just like a spotlight 
  Am 
A star up in the night sky 
    C                                         Am Em C D, 
The kind of thing that takes your breath away 
     G 
Your eyes sparkled like that diamond 
     Am 
With love beaming from 'em 
    C                                       D 
The kind of light that's never, never, never gonna fade 
           G 
It's gonna shine, shine, shine 
Am 
Shine, shine, shine 
C 
Shine, shine, shine 
       Am     Em         C 
Like a beacon calling me home 
     D     G     Am 
It's gonna shine 
         C                   D  G 
Oh yeah, shine, shine, shine
