SIb
Thunder on the mountain, 

and there's fires on the moon

A ruckus in the alley 
                       
and the sun will be here soon
MIb
Today's the day, 
                           SIb
gonna grab my trombone and blow
              FA7
Well, there's hot stuff here 
                      SIb
and it's everywhere I go

I was thinkin' 'bout Alicia Keys, 
                
couldn't keep from crying
      
But she was born in Hell's Kitchen,
                 
I was living down the line
    MIb
I'm wondering where in the world 
                  SIb
Alicia Keys could be
       FA7
I been looking for her even clear 
             SIb
through Tennessee

Feel like my soul is beginning to expand

Look into my heart 
                       
and you will sort of understand
MIb
You brought me here, 
                             SIb
now you're trying to run me away
    FA7                     
The writing on the wall, come read it, 
               SIb
come see what it say

SIb      MIb  SIb  FA7    SIb

SIb
Thunder on the mountain, 

rolling to the ground

Gonna get up in the morning 

walk the hard road down
MIb                                 SIb
Some sweet day I'll stand beside my king
             FA7                         SIb
I wouldn't betray your love or any other thing

Gonna raise me an army, 
             
some tough sons of bitches
         
I'll recruit my army from the orphanages
  MIb
I been to St. Herman's church, 
                  SIb
said my religious vows
FA7                                    SIb    
I've sucked the milk out of a thousand cows

I got the pork chops, she got the pie

She ain't no angel and neither am I
MIb
Shame on your greed, 
                    SIb
shame on your wicked schemes
FA7
I'll say this, 
                               SIb
I don't give a damn about your dreams

Thunder on the mountain, heavy as can be

Mean old twister bearing down on me
        MIb
All the ladies in Washington 
                             SIb
are scrambling to get out of town
                     FA7
Looks like something bad gonna happen, 
                          SIb
better roll your airplane down

Everybody going and I want to go too
                     
Don't wanna take a chance with somebody new
  MIb                                       SIb
I did all I could, I did it right there and then
       FA7                                  SIb
I've already confessed, no need to confess again
  
Gonna make a lot of money, gonna go up north

I'll plant and I'll harvest 

what the earth brings forth
    MIb
The hammer's on the table, 
                       SIb
the pitchfork's on the shelf
        FA7
For the love of God, 
                              SIb
you ought to take pity on yourself

SIb     MIb  SIb  FA7    SIb  MIb7  SIb
