[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                         Am
It's in with the new, 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          G
A fat hand, a fat wallet too
       G                               Am
Things change and get strange 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            D7                   G
Though we searched, we found no fountain of youth
       B7             Em
Not in Spain, nowhere near
   B7             Em    D
Anywhere close to here


[Verse 3]
        G                     Am
There's nothing good, because nothing lasts
    C                       D
And all that comes here, it comes here to pass
        G                      Am
I would voice my pain, 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


Enjoy!
