Somewhere just beyond my reach there's someone reaching back for me.
Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet, yeah!

CHORUS
 
EbmUp (xx4342@1)where the mountains meet the heavens above,
F#out (244322@1)where the lightning splits the sea,
Ebm (xx4342@1)                                                             C#I (x43121@1)could swear there is someone somewhere watching me.
EbmThrough (xx4342@1)the wind and the chill and the rain,
F#and (244322@1)the storm and the raging flood,
Ebm (xx4342@1)                                        C#I (x43121@1)can feel his approach like the fire in my blood
