Version 1 Version 3
[Intro]
|C |D |C G/B Am
[Verse 1]
G
I went to work for her that summer
Em
A teenage kid so far from home
C
She was a lonely widow woman
D
Hell-bent to make it on her own
G
We were a thousand miles from nowhere
Em
Wheat fields as far as I could see
C
Both needing something from each other
D Gsus2 G
Not knowing yet what that might be
[Verse 2]
G
'Til she came to me one evening
Em
Hot cup of coffee and a smile
C
In a dress that I was certain
D
She hadn't worn in quite a while
G
There was a difference in her laughter
Em
There was a softness in her eyes
C
And on the air there was a hunger
D Gsus2 G
Even a boy could recognize
[Chorus]
G D C
She had a need to feel the thunder
G
To chase the lightning from the skies
C
To watch a storm with all its wonder
D
Written in her lover's eyes
Em D C
She had to ride the heat of passion
G
Like a comet burning bright
C
Rushing headlong in the wind
D
Now where only dreams have been
G Gsus2 G
Burning both ends of the night
[Verse 3]
G
That summer wind was all around me
Em
Nothing between us but the night
C
When I told her that I'd never
D
She softly whispered that's alright
G
And then I watched her hands of leather
Em
Turn to velvet in a touch
C
There's never been a summer
D Gsus2 G
When I have ever learned so much
[Chorus]
G D C
She had a need to feel the thunder
G
To chase the lightning from the skies
C
To watch a storm with all its wonder
D
Written in her lover's eyes
Em D C
She had to ride the heat of passion
G
Like a comet burning bright
C
Rushing headlong in the wind
D
Now where only dreams have been
G Gsus2 G
Burning both ends of the night
[Solo]
C D Gsus2 G
[Verse 4]
G
I often think about that summer
Em
The sweat, the moonlight and the lace
C
And I have rarely held another
D
When I haven't seen her face
G
And every time I pass a wheat field
Em
And watch it dancing with the wind
C
Although I know it isn't real
D
I just can't help but feel
Gsus2 G
Her hungry arms again
[Chorus]
G D C
She had a need to feel the thunder
G
To chase the lightning from the skies
C
To watch a storm with all its wonder
D
Written in her lover's eyes
Em D C
She had to ride the heat of passion
G
Like a comet burning bright
C
Rushing headlong in the wind
D
Now where only dreams have been
G Gsus2 G
Burning both ends of the night
C
Rushing headlong in the wind
D
Now where only dreams have been
G Gsus2 G
Burning both ends of the night
