[Intro] Bm G Em F#m (x6) [Verse 1]
Bm         G            Em        F#m
I feel the breeze on my face in expectance

Bm       G               Em            F#m
Not very long before the storm reaches here

Bm         G            Em           F#m       Bm
Off in the distance the lightning is flashing again

               G             Em          F#m
Feel something strong as the power draws near
[Verse 2]
Bm        G          Em           F#m        Em
Is it the rolling of thunder that scares you?

          G           Em               F#m  Em
Is it the clashing of clouds that hold fear?

          G         Em               F#m Em
But all I know as I sit in a corner alone

            G          Em         F#m
It takes me back to my childhood again
Bm G Em F#m (x4) [Verse 3]
Bm       G          Em          F#m   Em
And as I wait and I look for an answer

           G            Em          F#m Em
To all the things going round in my head

        G              Em     F#m        Em
I ask myself, could it be a disaster and when

           G              Em      F#m
It's maybe threatening to happen again?
Bm G Em (x2) [Verse 4]
       Bm
As the ominous light draws near

          G          Em         Bm
There's a lone dog howls in the park

Bm
All the people hurry inside

     G              Em      A
As a lightning flash lights dark

    G        Em     Bm
The storm is nearly here
[Pre-Chorus]
G    Em       Bm
Only God will know
[Verse 5]
Bm
You're sitting alone, you watch

       G         Em       Bm
As the wind's blowing treetops

        Bm
And the swaying rusting of leaves

G             Em          A
Plenty of time to perceive

       G            Em      Bm
As you wait for rain to fall
[Pre-Chorus]
G    Em  Bm
Only God knows

    G     Em  F#m
The whole sky glows
[Chorus]
Bm
Maybe lightning strikes twice

Maybe lightning strikes twice

Maybe lightning strikes twice
[Guitar Solo] Bm G Em (x4) A G Em Bm G Em Bm [Harmony] Bm G A Em (x4) [Pre-Chorus]

The whole sky glows
