Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Had lips like candy, hair flowing like water
Skin like velvet made the whole damn world slow down
She was a preachers daughter, never did what daddy taught her
And the rebel in her soul brought her to me
The river was cold and the river was wide
She flowed from the mountain, straight across the Great Divide
And her heart ran cold but her love runs deep
Shes fire on the mountain, wrecking everyone she meets
Chorus 1
Shes like rain when she rolls in but that sunshine in her thunder
Makes the loneliest heart wonder if the ride is worth the pain
Might not be storm clouds in sight, oh but don't you worry friend
Shes coming around the bend, shes holding lightning in both hands
Lord please know its that time for me to go
The river has me heart, shes the keeper of my soul
On one side of the water, sweet everlasting grace
The other side could end your life or steal your breath away
Chorus 2
Shes like rain when she rolls in but that sunshine in her thunder
Makes the loneliest heart wonder if the ride is worth the pain
Might not be storm clouds in sight, oh but don't you worry friend
Shes coming around the bend, shes holding lightning in both hands
Fiddle solo
Bridge
Shes a natural disaster, shell tear the land in two
Shes running to be running cause its all she knows to do
Shes a tumbleweed a-rolling, a river running wild
A hurricane a-blowing, shes the calm after the storm under an Appalachian sunset sky
Chorus 1
Shes like rain, she rolls in
But there's sunshine in her thunder
Shes coming around the bend
Shes holding lightning in both hands
