Standard (EADGBE)

intro

verse 1 Three-thirty in the morning, not a soul in sight

The city's lookin' like a ghost town on a moonless summer night

Raindrops on the windshield, there's a storm moving in

He's headin' back from somewhere that he never should have been

And the thunder rolls, and the thunder rolls

verse 2 Every light is burnin', in a house across town

She's pacin' by the telephone in her faded flannel gown

Askin' for a miracle, hopin' she's not right

Prayin' it's the weather that's kept him out all night

And the thunder rolls, and the thunder rolls

chorus And the thunder rolls and the lightnin' strikes

Another love grows cold on a sleepless night

As the storm blows on out of control

Deep in her heart the thunder rolls

verse 3 She's waitin' by the window when he pulls into the drive

She rushes out to hold him thankful he's alive

But on the wind and rain a strange new perfume blows

And the lightnin' flashes in her eyes and he knows that she knows

And the thunder rolls, and the thunder rolls

Chorus

She runs back down the hallway, through the bedroom door.

She reaches for the pistol hidden in the dresser drawer.

Tells the lady in the mirror, "He won't do this again!".

Tonight'll be the last time she'll wonder where he's been...

And the thunder rolls...

Garth plays this at most of his concerts (well, the two I've been to at

least), plus he played it on his T.V. special.
