Lightning Rod Chords & Lyrics - Jenny Owen Youngs

[INTRO]
(4x)
[E7] [E7(add#11)]

[VERSE]
[E7]Heart at[E7(add#11)]tack
[E7]Jack-in-the-[E7(add#11)]box
I've [E7]been here so [E7(add#11)]long
I'm [E7]starting to [E7(add#11)]rot
And you're [Asus2]taking my fear [F/A]
Selling it in[E7] jars[E7(add#11)]

(3x)
[E7] [E7(add#11)]

[VERSE]
[E7]Back on the [E7(add#11)]playground
My [E7]knee socks are [E7(add#11)]bloody
[E7]I need some[E7(add#11)]one
To [E7]toss the con[E7(add#11)]fetti
At the [Asus2]ticker-tape parade [F/A]
I'm throwing for [E7]myself [E7(add#11)] [E7] [E7(add#11)]

[CHORUS]
[C]Look to the [Dadd4(add9)]floor
She [G6]used to be [G6/F#]pretty
[C]Don't say a [Dadd4(add9)]word
But she's [G6]drying out [G6/F#]slowly
[C]You have the [Dadd4(add9)]answers
[A7]I have the car keys__[E7]_ [E7(add#11)]

(3x)
[E7] [E7(add#11)]

[VERSE]
[E7]Lightning [E7(add#11)]rod
[E7]Strapped to my [E7(add#11)]shoulders
I'm [E7]searching through [E7(add#11)]windows
For [E7]rain and for [E7(add#11)]thunder
That could [Asus2]bring to a merciful [F/A]end
This overdrawn [E7]wait[E7(add#11)] [E7] [E7(add#11)]

[VERSE]
[E7]Carpet [E7(add#11)]burns
[E7]Up to my [E7(add#11)]elbows
It's [E7]time that you [E7(add#11)]learn
I [E7]guess I should [E7(add#11)]tell you
That the [Asus2]things you know about [F/A]me
Never were [E7]true [E7(add#11)] [E7] [E7(add#11)]

[CHORUS]
[C]Look to the [Dadd4(add9)]floor
I [G6]used to be [G6/F#]pretty
[C]Don't say a [Dadd4(add9)]word
But I'm [G6]drying out [G6/F#]quickly
[C]You have the [Dadd4(add9)]answers
[A7]I have the car keys___[E7]_ [E7(add#11)]

[E7] [E7(add#11)] [E7] [E7(add#11)] [E7]
