C Lightning's flashing all around me,
C Thunder's rolling up behind.
C Big blue clouds are going to roll in
C Full of tears and make me blind.
C I can't let her man recatch me.
C I can't stop to cry no more.
C I'm just running down the highway,
C One jump ahead of the storm.
Am One jump ahead of her F cryGing,
Am One jump ahead of her F cold cheating G arm.
Am One jump ahead of her F lyGing,
Am One jump ahead of the F storm. G C
C One day I looked on the horizon,
C Saw her love just couldn't last.
C Oh, my mind was torn to pieces.

C Before the rain could start to falling.
