Shine  Collective Soul

 
 -------

By Ed Roland
As performed by Collective Soul
Transcribed by John S. Jacob <jsjacob@uclink.berkeley.edu>
Paul D <S3BZ%TRANSY@UKCC.UKY.EDU>
Capo on the 4th fret (Fret numbers are counted from the capo)
This song sounds kinda retro to me. I don't usually like that sound,
but I really like it in this song. Unfortunately, I don't have a
recording of "Shine", so the music is what I got off the radio the few
times I've heard it on Live 105. I haven't sequenced the entire song,
but all the riffs are here. The lyrics have been generously provided
by Paul D. Thanks! -- John

Subject: Re: SHINE common youth (= Collective Soul?)
Hi there, Im one of those naughty people that tape stuff off the radio
I taped this and tried to work it out ( SHINE - by Collective Soul that is)
and this is what I came up with:
I think it is tuned down a semitone, then the sixth string tuned
down a further 2 semitones
intro and verses : (this is from memory)
 
 Eb------------------------------|-------------------------------
 Bb---5h7----7----5--------------|--5h7---7---/10-----------7----
 Gb------------------7--7-7-5-7--|-----------------7-7-7-9-------
 Db------------------------------|-------------------------------
 Ab------------------------------|-------------------------------
 Db------------------------------|-------------------------------
 Eb------------------------------|----------------------------------
 Bb------------------------------|----------------------------------
 Gb------------------------------|----------------------------------
 Db------------------------------|----------------------------------
 Ab--10------10----10----10---10-|-12--------12-----12-----12----12-
 Db--10--8-8-10--8-10--8-10-8-10-|-12--10-10-12--10-12--10-12-10-12-

then sometimes that heavy part:
 
 Eb---------------------------------------------------------|
 Bb---------------------------------------------------------|
 Gb--------------------------------------------------------o|
 Db--0--0-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-5---------0--0-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-5--6--o|
 Ab--0--0-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-5---------0--0-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-5--6---|
 Db--0--0-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-5---------0--0-0-3-0-3-0-3-0-5--6---|

yeah!
chorus:
 
 Eb---------------------------------------------------------
 Bb---------------------------------------------------------
 Gb-5-------------------------------------------------------
 Db-5-----------5------------------0------------------------
 Ab-3-----------5------------------0------------------------
 Db-------------5------------------0------------------------

woah... heaven let yor light shine down
there you go, the first two bars I think are right but
there seems to be something else playing aswell like another
string. The second two bars are my least confident, Ill have to
work on them but i thought i would enclude them anyway. the rest I think
is pretty right and the solo has roughly the same chords as the chorus
but i dont
remeber in what order. If anyone has a more correct version, I would
love to see it
anyway, seeya
