Capo: II
[Intro]
G C Bm Em C D G D7
G C Bm Em C D G G7
[Verse 1]
G C
I was born when I met you
Bm Em
Now I’m dying to forget you
C D G D7
And that is what I know
G C
Though I dreamed I would fall
Bm Em
Like a wounded cannonball
C D G G7
Sinking down with my heart in tow
[Chorus]
Em Em/B Bm Bm/F#
Bright lights like white lightning
C G
Who shot me down
C G
Who cut me down
Em Em/B B7 B7/F#
I’m frozen in my bed
C G Am D
Till the day comes around, how I’m lost how I’m found
[Verse 2]
G C
There’s a man all alone
Bm Em
Telling me his friends are gone
C D G D7
That they’ve died and flown away
G C
So I told him he was wrong
Bm Em
That your friends are never gone
C D G G7
If you look to the sky and pray
[Chorus]
Em Em/B Bm Bm/F#
Bright lights like white lightning
C G
Who shot me down
C G
Who cut me down
Em Em/B B7 B7/F#
I’m frozen in my bed
C G Am D
Till the day comes around, how I’m lost how I’m found
[Verse 3]
G C
Someone told me a lie
Bm Em
Someone looked me in the eye
C D G D7
And said time will ease your pain
G C
But behold, when you fall
Bm Em
It’s that same old cannonball
C D G G7
Coming back for your heart again
[Chorus]
Em Em/B Bm Bm/F#
Bright lights like white lightning
C G
Who shot me down
C G
Who cut me down
Em Em/B B7 B7/F#
I’m frozen in my bed
C G
Till the day comes around
Em Bm
And it may come around
C G
Till the day comes around
Am D
How I’m lost how I’m found
[Ending]
G C
I was born when I met you
Bm Em
Now I’m dying to forget you
C D G
And that is what I know
