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
