The Thunder Rolls
By:Garth Brooks
Capo 4
[Intro]
Am (Picked)
[Verse]
Am F
Three-thirty in the morning, not a soul in sight
E Am
The city's lookin' like a ghost town on a moonless summer night
Am F
Raindrops on the windshield, there's a storm moving in
E Am
He's headin' back from somewhere that he never should have been
G E Am
And the thunder rolls, and the thunder rolls
Am F
Every light is burnin', in a house across town
E Am
She's pacin' by the telephone in her faded flannel gown
Am F
Askin' for a miracle, hopin' she's not right
E Am
Prayin' it's the weather that's kept him out all night
G E Am G Am (Strike each once Fast)
And the thunder rolls, and the thunder rolls
[Chorus]
F G Am G Am
And the thunder rolls and the lightnin' strikes
F G E D E
Another love grows cold on a sleepless night
F G Am G Am
As the storm blows on out of control
F G Am
Deep in her heart the thunder rolls
[Verse]
Am F
She's waitin' by the window when he pulls into the drive
E Am
She rushes out to hold him thankful he's alive
Am F
But on the wind and rain a strange new perfume blows
E Am
And the lightnin' flashes in her eyes and he knows that she knows
G E Am G Am Am Am G Am
And the thunder rolls and the thunder rolls
[Chorus]
F G Am G Am
And the thunder rolls and the lightnin' strikes
F G E D E
Another love grows cold on a sleepless night
F G Am G Am
As the storm blows on out of control
F G Am
Deep in her heart the thunder rolls
Final Verse:
Am F
She runs back down the hallway, To the bedroom door
E Am
She reaches for the pistol Kept in the dresser drawer
Am F
Tells the lady in the mirror He won't do this again
E Am
Cause tonight will be the last time She'll wonder where he's been
