Chain Lighting

Intro:

Em

Verse 1:

Em                               
Sometimes when I'm thinkin' that 
C           G
love's not around
   Am          Em          Am    
My heart begins sinkin', I don't 
       B7
hear a sound
        Em                        
And the world is in blackness, no 
C               G
light shines on me
  Am        Em            Am     
I suffer no blindness, no one can
   B7
 I see
       Em                          
Then a flash from the heavens like 
  C           G
a loud jagged wire
        Am         Em              
And the silence is broken, and the 
B7          Em
night is on fire.

          Em                    C 
It's like chain lightning, this 
          G
love that I feel.
    Am              Em         Am
Who know's where it strikes or 
           B7
when it will hit,
    Am           Em     
How long it will last, or 
  B7                       Em
when............ it will quit.

Chords repeated for rest of song:

Verse 2:

In the forest I'm burning, struck 
down by the blast
The fever is churning, and the heat 
rises fast.
and those standing nearest can show 
their concern
but I swear if they touch me that 
they too will burn.
They fear for their lives for death 
will soon dwell
in the warmth of your love is the 
fire of hell.

(Chorus)

Verse 3:

And soon the sparks scatter and wind
 whips the flame
and love will soon shatter what it 
cannot tame
and the cycle continues, from life 
into dust
for I am now in you with the fire of
 lust.
And I hear the explosion, of thunder
 and rain,
the water is falling, the ashes 
remain.

(Chorus)

Verse 4:

The Indian's tell us that the 
Phoenix can rise
from the smoldering ashes that once 
were my eyes
and watch beautiful colours from 
black and from grey
be formed into wings and take me 
away
where evil is darkness and goodness 
is light
and love is the lightning that cuts 
through the night
and strikes only once in a dark 
place in time
and forms a gold stairway that all 
of us climb.
