G#         C#
It's my move, the ground's shaking
F#                      G#
This time I'm going to knock you down
I'm coming through, no more waiting
I'm on the move at the speed of sound

I'm alive like a hurricane flies
I'm going to run, I don't walk the line
When the sky and the worlds collide
F#
It's my time, I'm going to take what's mine

C#
Live wire, a loaded gun
     D#
Get ready because I'm the one

Chorus:
      F#         C#  G#
When lightning strikes
   F#          C#       G#
I howl at the rain and thunder
   F#    C#  G#
A fiery light
   F#        C#    G#
A flash of light electrifies
                C#
my heart and my soul
                                   G#
And lightning's going to strike tonight

Hold on, if you're coming
Let go, if you're staying behind
I feel the need, the sky is humming
I take the lead and it's my turn to shine

I'm alive, got the power inside
Going to rock, they call me dynamite
High voltage, running free
Release the storm that's inside of me

Black cloud, I'm the rebel son
Get ready because I'm the one

Chorus:
When lightning strikes
I howl at the rain and thunder
A fiery light
A flash of light

When lightning strikes
I howl at the rain and thunder
A fiery light
When lightning strikes

When lightning strikes
(when the lightning strikes)
When lightning strikes
(when the lightning strikes)
A fiery light (when the lightning strikes)
When lightning strikes,
electrifies my heart and my soul
