[intro]
A D E D C#m Bm
A
I went to work for her that summer
F#m
A teenage kid so far from home
D
She was a lonely widow woman
E Esus4
Hell bent to make it on her own
A Asus2
We were a thousands miles from nowhere
F#m
Wheat fields as far as I could see
D Dsus2 E
Both needing something from eachother
A
Not knowing yet what that might be
A
Till she came to me one evening
F#m
hot cup of coffee and a smile
D
In a dress that I was certain
E Esus4
She hadn't worn in quite a while
A Asus2
There was a difference in her laughter
F#m
There was a softness in her eyes
D Dsus2 E
And on the air there was a hunger
A
Even a boy could recognize
E D
She had a need to feel the thunder
A Asus2 A
To chase the lightning from the sky
D Dsus2 D
To watch the storm and all it's wonders
E Esus4 E
Raging in her lovers eyes
F#m E D
She had to ride the heat of passion
A Asus2 A
Like a comet burning bright
D
Rushing headlong in the wind
Dsus2 E
Out where only dreams have been
A
Burning both ends of the night
A
That summer wind was all around me
F#m
Nothing between us but the night
D
And when I told her that I'd never
E Esus4
She softly whispered that's alright
A Asus2
And then I watched her hands of leather
F#m
Turn to velvet in a touch
D Dsus2 E
There's never been another summer
A
When I have ever learned so much
E D
She had a need to feel the thunder
A Asus2 A
To chase the lightning from the sky
D Dsus2 D
To watch the storm and all it's wonders
E Esus4 E
Raging in her lovers eyes
F#m E D
She had to ride the heat of passion
A Asus2 A
Like a comet burning bright
D
Rushing headlong in the wind
Dsus2 E
Out where only dreams have been
A
Burning both ends of the night
A
I often think about that summer
F#m
The sweat the moonlight and the lace
D
And I have rarely held another
E Esus4
When I haven't seen her face
A Asus2
And everytime I pass a wheat field
F#m
And watch it dancing in the wind
D Dsus2 E
Although I know it isn't real
A
I just can't help but feel her lonely arms again
E D
She had a need to feel the thunder
A Asus2 A
To chase the lightning from the sky
D Dsus2 D
To watch the storm and all it's wonders
E Esus4 E
Raging in her lovers eyes
F#m E D
She had to ride the heat of passion
A Asus2 A
Like a comet burning bright
D
Rushing headlong in the wind
Dsus2 E
Out where only dreams have been
A
Burning both ends of the night
D
Rushing headlong in the wind
Dsus2 E
Out where only dreams have been
A
Burning both ends of the night
A D E D C#m Bm
