Studio Release (and live shows): No Capo [Intro] C/G [Verse 1]
C/G
Little rooster out on a fence post crowing

C/G
Here comes the storm like a big rig rolling

F
Here comes the storm like a big rig flying

C/G
Heavy, loaded down, fit to split the sky in
[Chorus]
   G
And oh, my little heart's in trouble

                            F
Feels like it just might ex-plode
Why they call it love when, oh
                 C/G
It feels like lightning?
[Verse 2]
C/G
I'm out in the open and the wind starts blowing

C/G
I don't know any which way I'm going

F
I don't know any which way I'm bound

C/G
I used to be laughing but I ain't laughing now
[Chorus]
   G
And oh, my little heart's in trouble

                            F
Feels like it just might ex-plode
Why they call it love when, oh
                 C/G
It feels like lightning?
[Bridge 1]
     Am
With cherry blossoms sweet with smoke

    Em
And Venus blazing above the oak

    F                                 C/G    G
I thought I knew all that there was to know

         Am
With the bluebird doing whatever it does

    Em
And God in his heaven wherever that was

        F                               G
And the sun was on the face of the buffalo
[Verse 3]
C/G
Out across the fields are the thunderheads gathering

C/G
Clouds all gone to the color of a cavern

F
Dust devils spinning around a hollow sound

C/G
They used to be laughing but they ain't laughing now
[Chorus]
   G
And oh, my little heart's in trouble

                            F
Feels like it just might ex-plode
Why they call it love when, oh
                 C/G
It feels like lightning?
[Break] C C C F C G F C/G [Bridge 2]
  Am
With monarch velvet dust the wind  [?]

    Em
Always leaving wherever it's been

   F                                 C/G  G
I thought that this was happy how it was  [?]

       Am
And I thought that I'd be doing fine

  Em
Change the way I was walking the line

  F                                       G
'Til I heard the thunder rumbling high above
[Verse 4]
C/G
This ain't any kind of storm for chasing

C/G
Gonna to catch up to you now, slow or racing

F
Gonna catch up to you now, by and by

C/G
Gonna make you feel good, gonna make you cry
[Chorus]
   G
And oh, my little heart's in trouble

                            F
Feels like it just might ex-plode
Why they call it love when, oh
                 C/G
It feels like lightning?
