More songs by Live


This file is part of a collection that (moreso than the rest of the site) are not meant to be detailed or accurate transcriptions of the original recordings. They're just some simple chord charts that I made for my own use, some of them my own arrangements.

Eadd9               Bsus2                 F#
        Lightning crashes, a new mother cries
Eadd9          Bsus2                F#
        Her placenta falls to the floor
Eadd9 Bsus2                   F#
        The angel opens her eyes, the confusion sets in
Eadd9           Bsus2                       F#
     before the doctor can even close the door


Eadd9               Bsus2                  F#
        Lightning crashes, an old mother dies
Eadd9         Bsus2                  F#
        Her intentions fall to the floor
Eadd9 Bsus2                    F#
        The angel closes her eyes, the confusion that was hers
Eadd9             Bsus2                    F#
        Belongs now to the baby down the hall


        Eadd9    Bsus2   F#
        Oh---- I feel it coming back again
      Eadd9    Bsus2   F#
        Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind
      Eadd9    Bsus2            F#
        Forces pulling from the center of the earth again
      Eadd9   Bsus2  F#
        I can feel it


Eadd9               Bsus2                 F#
        Lightning crashes, a new mother cries
Eadd9        Bsus2                       F#
        This moment she's been waiting for
Eadd9 Bsus2                   F#
        The angel opens her eyes, pale blue colored eyes
Eadd9                  Bsus2                         F#
        Presents the circle, puts the glory out to hide


        Eadd9    Bsus2   F#
        Oh---- I feel it coming back again
      Eadd9    Bsus2   F#
        Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind
      Eadd9    Bsus2            F#
        Forces pulling from the center of the earth again
      Eadd9   Bsus2  F#
        I can feel it
      Eadd9   Bsus2  F#
        I can feel it


            G#m   D#m   G#m   D#m   G#m   D#m   Eadd9  F#
                        G#m   D#m   G#m   D#m   Eadd9  F#
                      Oh why, oh why----- oh why-----


      Eadd9   Bsus2   F#
        I can feel it coming back again
      Eadd9    Bsus2   F#
        Like a rolling thunder chasing the wind
      Eadd9    Bsus2            F#
        Forces pulling from the center of the earth again
      Eadd9   Bsus2  F#
        I can feel it
