Notorious Lightning
guitar chords lyrics
F G
Oh, Notorious Lightning! Yes, I had to ride you
Am c D
And trash the crystal jets they kept in storage inside you!
F G
I was told never to question it.
c Em Am D F
Now I'm facing twenty years for every night I tried to ingest the snow so lightly! (huh?)
c
You simply couldn't put down the Black Book.
Em
You dreamt the dreams of the Self-Taught Man.
Am
You warn the ladies not to be corrupted by their looks,
F c
But your voice comes out soft and slanted!
F Em
And you're living off what government's granted you:
G Dm
Amnesty from the true
F G
Thing. Now, Sandra, slowly remove the ring and watch Notorious Lightning surround you.
F G
Watch Notorious Lightning surround you.
F G F
Watch Notorious Lightning surround you.
c
I lay myself down to observe your gilded jeans hit the ground,
Am
And have not grown from this worship.
c
I lay myself down to surrender,
Watch the trust funds gorge us again,
Am
And have not grown from this worship.
c
So, Great Pretender, pull a face! Let's see the best 'forlorn you know!'
Am
Just don't sing, "Barricades In The Morning" - it's been three days in a row
F c
And it never comes off like you planned it!
F c
Something once was delivered, then you banned it
G Dm
But, oh, there is a key to this thing...
G
Notorious Lightning...
Orchestra Part
[c ][Em ][Am ][F ] x 4
c
There is a monument.
Em
There is a place within it that I have won.
Am
And there is victory at sea.
F
And then there's the sun
c
Crashing down upon us
Em
Faithful readership of the Old Warden. We beg -
Am F
"No not another ode to the Garden! You've let the Book of Appeals pile up!"
c
So, Child of the East, it's time
Em
To shrug off the Beast and take a look at what you've done.
Am
The half-breed jury agrees you're OK,
F
But what they never seem to say is that it's never
G
The defense's witness...
c E
AND SOMEONE'S GOT TO FALL BEFORE SOMEONE GOES FREE!
F G
AND SOMEONE'S GOT TO FALL BEFORE SOMEONE GOES FREE!
c E
AND SOMEONE'S GOT TO FALL BEFORE SOMEONE GOES FREE!
F G
AND SOMEONE'S GOT TO FALL BEFORE SOMEONE GOES FREE!
c E
AND SOMEONE'S GOT TO FALL BEFORE SOMEONE GOES FREE!
F G
AND SOMEONE'S GOT TO FALL BEFORE SOMEONE GOES FREE!
c E
AND SOMEONE'S GOT TO FALL BEFORE SOMEONE GOES FREE!
F G
AND SOMEONE'S GOT TO FALL BEFORE SOMEONE GOES FREE!
