We Dared the Lightning
written by Vanessa Hill
NOTE: Some lyrical help much appreciated (especially the bridge)


INTRO: D  G  Cadd9  (2x)

D
Mama said slow down, but I was goin' to fast to listen
D
Said what goes 'round comes around, but only time could get my attention
          G                              D 
But as I look back now over advice well given
              G                        A
I can't help wonderin' how it is that I'm still livin'


CHORUS:
            G                          D
I had some wild friends, we did some crazy things
             A                    G         D
We kept some long late hours, we dared the lightnin'
           G                     D
We took it to the edge, runnin' full speed ahead
             A                       G        D
We laid our lives on the line, we dared the lightnin' D G Cadd9 It really blows my mind, I don't know how that I survived Still I go back from time to time, visit others by their graveside Wish mama had lived to see now I have kids of my own She'd be laughin' at me but mama'd never cast a stone CHORUS BRIDGE: A G D It was like playin' Russian roulette, always braggin' and bluffin' A G A Racin' 'round in our gin bullets, we never stopped at nothin' SOLO CHORUS A G D We laid our lives on the line, we dared the lightnin' D D D G Cadd9 D We dared the lightnin', we dared the lightnin' D G Cadd9 D We dared the lightnin' (repeat and fade)
