[Chorus]
G Am
Down with the shine, the perfect shine
C D
That poisons the well, and ruins my mind
G Am
I get took for a ride every time
C D G
Down with the glistening shine
[Verse 1]
G
It's in with the new,
Am
and out with the old
C D
Out with the warm, and in comes the cold
G Am
It's the most predictable story told:
C D G
In with the young, out with the old
[Chorus]
G Am
Down with the shine, the perfect shine
C D
That poisons the well, and ruins my mind
G Am
I get took for a ride every time
C D G
Down with the glistening shine
[Verse 2]
G Am
A belly full of high dollar wines
C D
A fat hand, a fat wallet too
G
Things change and get strange
Am
with the movement of time
C D G
It's happening right now to you
[Chorus]
G Am
Down with the shine, the perfect shine
C D
That poisons the well, and ruins my mind
G Am
I get took for a ride every time
C D G
Down with the glistening shine
[Bridge]
D D7 G
It's a real bad time to bring up the truth
D
Though we searched,
D7 G
we found no fountain of youth
B7 Em
Not in Spain, nowhere near
B7 C D
Anywhere close to here
[Verse 3]
G
There's nothing good,
Am
because nothing lasts
C
And all that comes here,
D
it comes here to pass
G
I would voice my pain,
Am
but the change wouldn't last
C D G
All that comes, comes here to pass
[Chorus]
G Am
Down with the shine, the perfect shine
C D
That poisons the well, and ruins my mind
G Am
I get took for a ride every time
C D G
Down with the glistening shine
G Am
I get took for a ride every time
C D G
Down with the glistening shine
