C                                  Am
I've been trying to keep it down I know this world can be uptight
      F                           C
I get sideways looks everywhere I go
       C                             Am
But if following my heart is wrong I don't want to be right
          F                        C
See I'm a wildfire but all I do is glow

[Pre-chorus]
                       C                       Am
And in my heart I got a marching band and they
                      F
beating drums singing
                      C
you've been quiet for
                      C
much too long and the
                     Am
tension's rising, I'm 'bout to blow
N.C.
I can't stay in the box you made for me no no

[Chorus]
              C                   Am
Can't hold it in no more, can't bite my toungue
          F                                 C
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that must be sung
              C                 Am
Can't hold it in no more, my time has come
          F                               C
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond in the sun

N.C.
Shimmy shimmy shine with me now
C       Am
hey, woah
F          C
say hey, woah
N.C.
Shimmy shimmy shine with me now
C       Am
hey, woah
F          C
say hey, woah

[Verse 2]
   C                                 Am
So world you best get ready there is no one quiet like me
   F                             C
No copies of my soul that I have seen
        C                                    Am
And I'm on this earth for something and that something is unique
           F                              C
falling in line is not the kind I want to be

[Pre-chorus]
                          C                      Am
Cause in my heart I got a marching band and they
                      F
beating drums singing
                      C
you've been quiet for
                      C
much too long and the
                     Am
tension's rising, I'm 'bout to blow
N.C.
I can't stay in the box you made for me no no

[Chorus]
              C                   Am
Can't hold it in no more, can't bite my toungue
          F                                 C
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that must be sung
              C                 Am
Can't hold it in no more, my time has come
          F                               C
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond in the sun

N.C.
Shimmy shimmy shine with me now
C       Am
hey, woah
F          C
say hey, woah
N.C.
Shimmy shimmy shine with me now
C       Am
hey, woah
F          C
say hey, woah

[Bridge]
        C                       Am
So imma shine, oh imma shine on through
           F                C                  G
Wether you like my shine or not, at least it's true

[Chorus]
              C                   Am
Can't hold it in no more, can't bite my toungue
          F                                 C
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that must be sung
              C                 Am
Can't hold it in no more, my time has come
          F                               C
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond in the sun

              C                   Am
Can't hold it in no more, just having fun
          F                                 C
I'm gonna sing like I'm a song that must be sung
              C                 Am
Can't hold it in no more, my time has come
          F                               C
I'm gonna shine like I'm a diamond in the sun

N.C.
Shimmy shimmy shine with me now
C       Am
hey, woah
F          C
say hey, woah
N.C.
Shimmy shimmy shine with me now
C       Am
hey, woah
F          C
say hey, woah
