Notorious Lightning


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!
