Lightning Bolt Ghost Mice
If you see that something is wrong, feel free to correct me. I'd love to see some
alternate versions of this song.
Listen to the song for the strumming. I tabbed this from the Andrew Jackson Jihad
version, so there might be some
minor differences compared to the Ghost Mice version. Love both bands, and the song.
[D]The best years of his life is [A]what he gave to you[G]
[D]Never late a day he's been [A]faithful and [G]true
[D]putting out the tombstones and d[A]igging down the [G]graves
[D]for over thirty years now and I [A]can't believe you have[G] the nerve to[Em] say
That now you're [G]gonna have to cut his [D]pay
'cause one of your[A] priests did suc[G]h an awf[D]ul thing
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/g/ghost_mice/lightning_bolt_crd.html )
[D]Lightning bolt oh lightning bolt why [A]don't you strike them[G] down
[D]for what they did they deserve to be a [A]black spot on the [G]ground
[D]And if there is a god living [A]up there in the[G] clouds
[D]I can't imagine a better time to [A]show his[G] wrath tha[Em]n now
Somehow these monsters [G]all seem higher than the [D]law
They won't[A] see any [G]punishment at[D] all
[D]He didn't give a damn about your g[A]od or your c[G]hurch
[D]He was just an honest man looking [A]for some honest[G] work
[D]And in his little finger he's [A]got more purity[G]
[D]than a whole church load full of [A]your child[G] molestin[Em]g priests
It seems that you're [G]making him pay for the guilty s[D]ins
Thirty [A]years and that's the [G]thanks he [D]gets
[D]Well it's hard to imagine there could b[A]e a greater [G]sin
[D]than using your trust for [A]abusing a [G]kid
[D]As hard as it may seem, well I [A]think that there[G] is
and [D]you're committing it by [A]protecting these[G] old evil[Em] men
And if there r[G]eally is a judgement [D]day
you're [A]gonna have a [G]whole lot to[D] explain
