Nothing Grows In Shadows

Intro: x 8measures Hey, you kids, bullyin' the kids down at your school One of these days you're gonna grow up, be ashamed Who gave you the right to de- cide who is and who ain't cool Who could sit at your table and be on your team and play your games Let 'em shine, shine like a diamond Give 'em time and you'll find there's no cover rose God's light shines for every- body So get out-ta His way, nothin' grows in shadows Hey, you fathers, screamin' at your kids from the bleachers Sayin' "quit actin' like a sissy, suck it up and win" Maybe you ought'a stop and think a- bout what you're teachin' Yeah, you talk about a loser, I don't think it's them Let 'em shine, shine like a diamond Give 'em time and you'll find there's no cover rose God's light shines for every- body So get out-ta His way, nothin' grows in shadows Well, I aint sayin' I aint been a shadow myself A dark cloud that rained on somebody else Well, I learned a lesson that I need to tell The doctor that saved my mommas life, helped beat her cancer, made sure she got well, was a kid I went to school with all my life Man, I used to give him hell Let 'em shine, shine like a diamond Give 'em time and you'll find there's no cover rose God's light shines for every- body So get out-ta His way, nothin' grows in shadows Oh, get out-ta His way, nothin' grows in shadows Inst. solo: x 2 and fade
