[Intro]      C        Am    F        Am     G(keeps repeating troughout the whole song)
[Verse 1]
CI shouldn't have walked away
AmI would've stayed if you say
FWe could've made
EverythinAmg ok
But wGe just
CThrew the blame back and forth 
AmWe treated love like a sport 
FThe final blow hit so low
I'm Amstill on the Gground
[Pre-Chorus]
C...
I couldn't have prepared myself for this fall
Shattered in pieces curled on the floor
Supernatural love conquers all
'Member we used to touch the sky
[Chorus]
And
Lightning don't strike
The same place twice
When you and I
Said goodbye
I felt the angels cry
True love's a gift
But we let it drift
In a storm
Every night
I feel the angels cry
C'mon babe can't our love be revived
Bring it back and we gon' make it right
I'm on the edge just tryin' to survive
As the angels cry
[Verse 2]
Limitless omnipresent kind of love
Couldn't have guessed it
Would just up and disappear in the whirlwind 
Here I am
Walkin' on this narrow rope
Wobbling but won't let go
Waitin' for a glimpse of the sun's glow
[Pre-Chorus]
I know I can stand just pull me back up
Like there ain't no hurricane it's just us
I'm willing to live and die for our love
Baby we can get back that shine
[Chorus]
Cause lightning don't strike
The same place twice
When you and I
Said goodbye
I felt the angels cry
True love's a gift
But we let it drift
In a storm
Every night
I feel the angels cry
Come on baby can our love be revived
Bring it back and we're gon' make it right
I'm on the edge just trying to survive
As the angels cry
Baby I'm missin' you
Don't allow love to lose
We gotta ride it through
I'm reaching for you 
[Bridge]
Baby I'm missin' you
Don't allow love to lose
We gotta ride it through
I'm reaching for you
Lightning don't strike
The same place twice
When you and I
Said goodbye
Felt the angels cry
True love's a gift
But we let it slip
In a storm
Every night
I feel the angels cry

C Am F Am G

[Intro] (keeps repeating troughout the whole song)

[Verse 1]

I shouldn't have walked away

I would've stayed if you say

We could've made

Everything ok

But we just

Threw the blame back and forth

We treated love like a sport

The final blow hit so low

Am G

I'm still on the ground

[Pre-Chorus]

...

I couldn't have prepared myself for this fall

Shattered in pieces curled on the floor

Supernatural love conquers all

'Member we used to touch the sky

[Chorus]

And

Lightning don't strike

The same place twice

When you and I

Said goodbye

I felt the angels cry

True love's a gift

But we let it drift

In a storm

Every night

I feel the angels cry

C'mon babe can't our love be revived

Bring it back and we gon' make it right

I'm on the edge just tryin' to survive

As the angels cry

[Verse 2]

Limitless omnipresent kind of love

Couldn't have guessed it

Would just up and disappear in the whirlwind

Here I am

Walkin' on this narrow rope

Wobbling but won't let go

Waitin' for a glimpse of the sun's glow

[Pre-Chorus]

I know I can stand just pull me back up

Like there ain't no hurricane it's just us

I'm willing to live and die for our love

Baby we can get back that shine

[Chorus]

Cause lightning don't strike

The same place twice

When you and I

Said goodbye

I felt the angels cry

True love's a gift

But we let it drift

In a storm

Every night

I feel the angels cry

Come on baby can our love be revived

Bring it back and we're gon' make it right

I'm on the edge just trying to survive

As the angels cry

Baby I'm missin' you

Don't allow love to lose

We gotta ride it through

I'm reaching for you

[Bridge]

Baby I'm missin' you

Don't allow love to lose

We gotta ride it through

I'm reaching for you

Lightning don't strike

The same place twice

When you and I

Said goodbye

Felt the angels cry

True love's a gift

But we let it slip

In a storm

Every night

I feel the angels cry
