Intro: 
C 

Verse: 
             C 
You give me hope 
                     G 
When all around was lost 
             C               F 
And I could see no point in trying 
    Em                 Am 
For I saw love passing by me 
     Dm 
You came into my life 
     G 
You came into my life 


Verse: 
          C 
I look around 
            G 
And what I had is gone 
           C 
Now, I've finally found 
                F 
What I've been missing 
     Em                  Am  
The road I travel is so clear 
           Dm 
Since you came into my life 
     G 
You came into my life 


 G              C 
And you're the star 

My shinin' light 

The mornin' dawnin' 

When the sun comes up so bright 
Em        F 
And the closer I get 
           G 
Yes, it's true 

            C 
You're the star 

Above the storm 
         Am 
I wanna wrap you in my arms 
               
And keep you warm 
G      F                        G 
No, I don't wanna live without you 
          F                        G 
No, I've never found nothin' like you 


Verse: 
 G            C      
You give me faith 
             G 
The kind I thought had gone 
           C 
Somewhere down the line 
           F 
I think I lost it 
      Em                       Am 
Now, I've found changes in my heart 
      Dm 
Your faith in me is strong 
       G 
Your faith in me is strong 


 G              C 
And you're the star 

My shinin' light 

The mornin' dawnin' 

When the sun comes up so bright 
Em        F 
And the closer I get 
           G 
Yes, it's true 

            C 
You're the star 

Above the storm 
         Am 
I wanna wrap you in my arms 
               
And keep you warm 
G      F                        G 
No, I don't wanna live without you 
          F                        G  Ab  
No, I've never found nothin' like you
