Thunder On The Mountain

G
Thunder on the mountain, and there's
 fires on the moon

a ruckus in the alley and the sun 
will be here soon
C                            
Today's the day, gonna grab my 
               G
trombone and blow
D                         G
Well, there's hot stuff here and 
it's everywhere I go

G
I was thinkin' 'bout Alicia Keys, 
couldn't keep from crying

When she was born in Hell's Kitchen,
 I was living down the line
C                        G
I'm wondering where in the world 
Alicia Keys could be
D                                 
I been looking for her even clear 
   G
through Tennessee

G
Feel like my soul is beginning to 
expand

Look into my heart and you will sort
 of understand
C                             
You brought me here, now you're 
      G
trying to run me away
D                                 
The writing on the wall, come read
         G
 it, come see what it say

[Verse]
G
Thunder on the mountain, rollin' 
like [a] drum

Gonna sleep over there, that's where
 the music coming from
C                               G
I don't need any guide, I already 
know the way
D                                 
Remember this, I'm your servant both
G
 night and day

G
The pistols are poppin' and the 
power is down

I'd like to try somethin' but I'm so
 far from town
C                                 
The sun keeps shinin' and the 
         G
North Wind keeps picking up speed
D                             
Gonna forget about myself for a 
                      G
while, gonna go out and see what 
others need

G
I've been sittin' down studyin' the 
art of love

I think it will fit me like a glove
C                                 
I want some real good woman to do 
  G
just what I say
D                                 
Everybody got to wonder what's the
            G
 matter with this cruel world today

[Verse]
G
Thunder on the mountain rolling to 
the ground

Gonna get up in the morning walk the
 hard road down
C                           G
Some sweet day I'll stand beside my 
king
D                             G
I wouldn't betray your love or any 
other thing

G
Gonna raise me an army, some tough 
sons of bitches

I'll recruit my army from the 
orphanages
C                                 
I been to St. Herman's church, 
    G
said my religious vows
D                             G
I've sucked the milk out of [a] 
thousand cows

G
I got the porkchops, she got the pie

She ain't no angel and neither am I
C                               G
Shame on your greed, shame on your 
wicked schemes
D                                 
I'll say this, I don't give a damn
  G
 about your dreams

[Verse]
G
Thunder on the mountain heavy as can
 be

Mean old twister bearing down on me
C                          
All the ladies in Washington 
              G
scrambling to get out of town
D                            
Looks like something bad gonna 
                  G
happen, better roll your airplane 
down

G
Everybody going and I want to go too

Don't wanna take a chance with 
somebody new
C                                 
I did all I could, I did it right 
  G
there and then
D                                
I've already confessed - no need to 
G
confess again

G
Gonna make a lot of money, gonna go 
up north

I'll plant and I'll harvest what the
 earth brings forth
C                            
The hammer's on the table, the 
        G
pitchfork's on the shelf
D                                 
For the love of God, you ought to 
      G
take pity on yourself
