Intro:

Gm F C/E C


Verse 1:
              Gm
What if this storm ends?
              G/F
And I don't see you
           C/E
As you are now
       C
Ever again

              Gm
The perfect halo
              G/F
Of gold hair and lightning
           C/E
Sets you off against
       C
The planet's last dance


Verse 2:
              Gm
Just for a minute
               G/F
The silver forked sky
           C/E
Lit you up like a star
       C
That I will follow

              Gm
Now it's found us
               G/F
Like I have found you
           C/E
I don't want to run
       C
Just overwhelm me


Verse 3:
              Gm
What if this storm ends?
              G/F
And leaves us nothing
           C/E
Except a memory
       C
A distant echo

              Gm
I want pinned down
              G/F
I want unsettled
            C/E
Rattle cage after cage
       C
Until my blood boils


Verse 4:
              Gm
I want to see you
              G/F
As you are now
            C/E
Every single day
       C
That I am living

              Gm
Painted in flames
               G/F
All peeling thunder
           C/E
Be the lightning in me
       C
That strikes relentless
