Verse 1:

A D

Well it was January, not the Fourth of July

A snow white mornin' and a clear blue sky

We were miles from nowhere

D E

But somehow our other love found us.

A D

We were laughin' and lookin' in eachother's hearts

Talkin' and touchin', tryin' so hard

A E

Not to notice what was goin all around us...

CHORUS:

A F#m

There were fireworks flashin' and thunder clappin',

D E

big waves crashin' on the shore.

A F#m

There were church bells ringin' and angels singin',

D E

all gathered 'round Heaven's door

D C#m

Then we kissed and I saw the light,

D E

I could go on about this all night.

A F#m D E

Hey darlin' if you don't wanna hear how the waters parted..

A F#m D E

Don't get me started.

Verse 2:

A D

Naw, don't get me started, I'm warnin' you

unless you got an extra week or two;

You know darn well

D E

how I get when you get me goin..

A D E

Naw, don't get me talkin' about us..

A D E

Unless you're longin' for a dose of strong emotion...

CHORUS: (same as before)

A F#m

There were fireworks flashin' and thunder clappin',

big waves crashin' on the shore.
