The Thunder Rolls
Dm A#
Three thirty in the morning not a soul in sight
A Dm
City’s lookin’ like a ghost town on a moonlit summer night
A#
Raindrops on the windshield there’s a storm movin’ in
A Dm
He’s headin’ back from somewhere that he never should’ve been
C C/B A Dm
And the thunder rolls, and the thunder rolls…
Dm A#
Every light is burnin’ in a house across town
A Dm
She’s pacin’ by the telephone in her faded flannel gown
A#
Askin’ for a miracle hopin’ she’s not right
A Dm
Prayin’ it’s the weather that’s kept him out all night
C C/B A Dm Dm C Dm
And the thunder rolls, and the thunder rolls…
(chorus)
A# C Dm C Dm
The thunder rolls and the lightnin’ strikes
A# C A G A
Another love grows cold on a sleepless night
A# C Dm C Dm
As the storm blows on out of control
A# C Dm
Deep in her heart, the thunder rolls
Dm A#
She’s waitin’ by the window when he pulls into the drive
A Dm
She rushes out to hold him thankful he’s alive
A#
But on the wind and rain a strange new perfume blows
A Dm
And the lightin’ flashes in her eyes and he knows that she knows
C C/B A Dm C Dm Dm
And the thunder rolls, and the thunder rolls…
(repeat chorus)
Dm A#
She runs back down the hallway, through the bedroom door
A Dm
She reaches for the pistol hidden in the dresser drawer
A#
Tells the lady in the mirror, “He won’t do this again!”
A Dm
Tonight’ll be the last time she’ll wonder where he’s been
C C/B A Dm Dm Dm Dm Dm Dm Dm Dm
And the thunder rolls, and the thunder rolls…
(repeat chorus)
