Intro: D/D/ G D / A / D
Verse:
D F#m
From far away, and distant lands
G D/F# A
The tempest tossed with hopeful hearts and calloused hands
D F#m
Reach toward the light, the torch held high
G D/F# A D
And cast their gaze upon the lady of the harbour
Chorus:
Bm A D D/F# G
And she welcomes them with o---pen arms
Bm A D D/F# G
She says let my chil--dren in
D F#m
Shine On, Shine On
G A D
Oh you lady of the har----bour
D / G / D/F# / A /
D F#m
And so it was, with my own kin
G D/F# A
They sailed from Sweden and from France, and Ire-land
D F#m
Their earthly cares, pack in their bags
G D/F# A D
They cast their gaze upon the lady of the har-bour
Chorus:
Bridge:
Bm A D D/F3# G
Now we're locking down the borders and we're filling up the jails
Bm A D D/F# G
And we say they don't be-------------long
Bm A D D/F3# G
How convenient---ly do we for-----------get
Em D/F# G
That we've all come to sing the same sweet song
Verse 3:
Will the dream, survive the strain
Will huddled masses have a chance to learn it's sweet refrain
Or will we fall, into our fears
And turn our backs against the lady of the harbour
Chorus:
