Verse 1:
F       
 I was looking at a photograph,
                   D                  Gm
Taken in a garden long before the war,
                Bbm
And out on the lawn, 
          F             Am                   Dm
There were old men and dogs and little children,
             Gm  F         C
All of them gone.. forever

Verse 2:
F
 There were people by the waterside,
                             D              Gm
Standing in the same place where I am today,
              Bbm
Nothing has changed,  
             F              Am              Dm
But you know, that time is moving like a river,
                Gm  F         C
It can only be love.. forever

Pre-Chorus:
Bb    C     Bb    C
Aaaah Aaaah Ooooh Ooooh

Chorus:
  F      C     Dm               F
We shine on, brighter than the sun,
 Bb             F         Gm                C
Live for every moment, before the moment's gone,
  F      C    Dm           F
We shine on, you and me tonight,
 Bb            F
Way across the universe,
 Gm             C           F    C Bb C
Burning like a fire in the night

Verse 3:
F             
 There are those who can never cross,
                     D              Gm
The space between a father and a son,
               Bbm
When they are young,
       F             Am                      Dm
We must say all the words that should be spoken,
                 Bb  F         C
Before they are lost.. forever

Verse 4:
F                     
 And I was looking at a photograph,
                     D                  Gm
Taken from a window way above the world,
              Bbm
We've got to learn,
         F            Am                  Dm
We must leave here a garden for our children,
             Gm  F         C
When we are gone.. forever

Bb    C     Bb    C
Aaaah Aaaah Ooooh Ooooh

We shine on, brighter than the sun,
 Bb             F         Gm                C
Live for every moment, before the moment's gone,
  F      C    Dm           F
We shine on, you and me tonight,
 Bb            F
Way across the universe,
 Gm             C           F    C Dm F Bb F Gm C
Burning like a fire in the night

F         C Dm F Bb F Gm C

Leave here a new world,  Oooh
        Bb  C         Bb
In the night, in the night

Burning like a fire in the night...
