The Thunder Rolls
Garth Brooks
Key of Dm
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 C Dm
Chorus And the thunder rolls and the lightnin’ strikes
Bb C A G A
Another love grows cold on a sleepless night
Bb C Dm C Dm
As the storm blows on out of control
Bb C Dm
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

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.
