Verse
C
It's storming out, maybe you should come inside
Cmaj7
And tell me why you don't wanna be alive
Dm7 G
If you don't respond, I'll put my shoes on
C
And lay down on the pavement next to you
Cmaj7 Dm7
If we get struck, at least we'll make the news
G
The news
[Chorus]
C
What a way to go out
C Am
Something this town will forever talk about
F
The two kids who were laying down
F N.C. C G
And struck by lightning in front of your house
[Verse 2]
C
In the mud, sinking down
Cmaj7 Dm7
Thinking of everything I've to think about
G
You shut me up, look at the clouds
As lightning struck
[Chorus]
C
What a way to go out
C Am
Something this town will forever talk about
F
The two kids who were laying down
C
And struck by lightning in front of your house
The kids out on the playground
C Am
Years from now will say did you ever hear about
F
The two kids who were laying down
F N.C. C
And struck by lightning in front of your house
[Bridge]
(C) F
Maybe on a sunny day
Am
You might have some things to say
G
But if you don't, that's ok
[Chorus]
C
What a way to go out
C Am
Something this town will forever talk about
F
The two kids who were laying down
C
And struck by lightning in front of your house
The kids out on the playground
C Am
Years from now will say did you ever hear about
F
The two kids who were laying down
F N.C. C
And struck by lightning in front of your house
[Outro]
C Am
As lightning struck
F N.C.
And struck by lightning in front of your house
