(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
