The Thunder Rolls
Garth Brooks

 
intro          Dm
 
               Dm                          Bb
verse 1        Three-thirty in the morning, not a soul in sight
               A                                                         Dm
               The city's lookin' like a ghost town on a moonless summer night
               Dm                                      Bb
               Raindrops on the windshield, there's a storm moving in
               A                                                          Dm
               He's headin' back from somewhere that he never should have been
                                C    C/B  A                          Dm
               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
               
                                 C   C/B  A                   Dm  C  Dm            
               And the thunder rolls,         and the thunder rolls
 
                               Bb    C                      Dm 
chorus         And the thunder rolls    and the lightnin' strikes
                                  Bb     C                  A  
               Another love grows cold     on a sleepless night
                                  Bb  C                 Dm  
               As the storm blows on      out of control
                            Bb   C                Dm
               Deep in her heart     the thunder rolls
 
 
                Dm                              Bb
verse 3        She's waitin' by the window when he pulls into the drive
               A                                                 Dm
               She rushes out to hold him thankful he's alive
                Dm                              Bb
               But on the wind and rain a strange new perfume blows
               A                                                 Dm
               And the lightnin' flashes in her eyes and he knows that she knows
                                 C   C/B  A                 Dm C Dm  Dm Dm Dm
               And the thunder rolls,       and the thunder rolls
 
               
                                 C   C/B  A                   Dm  C  Dm            
               And the thunder rolls,         and the thunder rolls
 
                               Bb    C                      Dm 
chorus         And the thunder rolls    and the lightnin' strikes
                                  Bb     C                  A  
               Another love grows cold     on a sleepless night
                                  Bb  C                 Dm  
               As the storm blows on      out of control
                            Bb   C                Dm
               Deep in her heart     the thunder rolls
 
		Dm                              Bb
		She runs back down the hallway, through the bedroom door
		A                                                 Dm
		She reaches for the pistol hidden in the dresser drawer
		Dm                          Bb
		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  C  Dm            
               And the thunder rolls,         and the thunder rolls
 
                               Bb    C                      Dm 
chorus         And the thunder rolls    and the lightnin' strikes
                                  Bb     C                  A  
               Another love grows cold     on a sleepless night
                                  Bb  C                 Dm  
               As the storm blows on      out of control
                            Bb   C                Dm
               Deep in her heart     the thunder rolls
