  			E5              G5          B5      D5 
I've been in this grass here for the last 10 hours 
E5            G5         B5      D5 
My clothes are dirty but my mouth isn't dry 
E5       G5     B5    D5 
How does it happen?  Does it fly through the air? 
E5         G5          B5    D5 
Oh I gave up asking days away 
I gave up asking 
Days away 

E5                        G5          B5                   D5 
And now I'm lying here waiting for the Sound of Thunder 
E5                        G5          B5                   D5 
Waiting for the Sound of Thunder 
E5                        G5 
Here I am, I'm a dotted line 
B5                                  D5 
Cut the corner, stick me to your door 
E5                        G5          B5                   D5 
I'm the man who stepped off the path 
and I just lie here 
It's what I was made for 

F#5     A5     C#5     E5 

F#5                               A5          C#5                       E5 
And now my eyes are closing, but I still feel the land 
F#5                               A5          C#5                       E5 
Leaning out for the touch of my hand 
F#5                               A5 
The world spins so fast that I might fly off 
C#5                               E5 
The world spins so fast that I might fly off 
F#5                               A5                C#5                 E5 
The world spins so fast, I might fly off 

Waiting for the Sound of Thunder 
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder 
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder 
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder 
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder 
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder 
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder
