[Verse]
      G           C
I was born when I met you
        Bm          Em
now I'm dying to forget you
    Am      D      G D7
and that is what I know
         G               C
Though I dreamed I would fall
       Bm            Em
like a wounded cannonball
        Am           D        G6 G7
sinking down with my heart in tow
[Chorus]
Em                 Bm
Bright lights like white lightning
C           G
Who shot me down
C          G
Who cut me down
Em         B7                 C          G
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
        C             D
How I'm lost, how I'm found
[Verse]
          G        C
There's a man all alone
        Bm                 Em
telling me his friends are gone
              Am       D     G D
that they've died and flown away
     G               C
So I told him he was wrong
          Bm                Em
that your friends are never gone
       Am          D       G6 G7
If you look to the sky and pray
[Chorus]
Em                 Bm
Bright lights like white lightning
C           G
Who shot me down
C          G
Who cut me down
Em         B7                 C          G
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
        C             D
How I'm lost, how I'm found
[Verse]
        G         C
Someone told me a lie
        Bm               Em
Someone looked me in the eye
         Am        D         G D
and said time will ease your pain
     G               C
But behold, when you fall
         Bm             Em
its that same old cannonball
       Am            D     G6 G7
coming back for your heart again
[Chorus]
Em                 Bm
Bright lights like white lightning
C           G
Who shot me down
C          G
Who cut me down
Em         B7                 C          G
I'm frozen in my bed till the day comes around
Em              Bm
And it may come around
         C          G
Till the day comes around
        Am            D
How I'm lost, how I'm found
      G           C
I was born when I met you
        Bm          Em
Now I'm dying to forget you
    C       D      G
and that is what I know
