Em                Am
Cool as the water melting from the winter snows
Em          G               Am
You are the island Ive been looking for
Em
I dont know where you come from
           Am
But I can feel you comin on
          Em            G
Youre a storm inside my soul
            Am
Thats ragin out of control

Chorus:
G
Call the wind out
Am
Call out the thunder
    G                                Am
Oh lightning, only you can will the weather
        C
I said come on
         D
Wont ya come on?
Em         G     Am
Lightning youre mine
   C      D Em
Tonight, tonight
Em              G           Am
You caught me while I was sleepin
 C             D    Em
Restin from a heavy run
Em                G       Am
I saw you in your evening gown
C                 D       Em
You were lighting up the sky
Em                G      Am
No matter what tomorrow brings
C                D     Em
Lightning, your mine tonight
       C              D      Em
Woah, lightning your mine tonight

Crack the horizon
Only you can split the night
Then comes your mother cloud to take you away
Another wind will dry me
And the sun will make me warm
But to me my life will always be
The calm before the storm
