"Thunderstorms & Neon Signs"
Words & music by Wayne Hancock
E A
There's some big black clouds blowin' in from the west
E B7
I've been drivin all day lord I sure could use some rest
E A
There's a motel up ahead where I can unwind
E B7 E
Cause I sure love thunderstorms and neon signs
E A
I grew up on the road from town to town
E B7
My daddy's line of work kept us movin' around
E A
I got fond memories of the way things were back then
E B7 E
The warmth of the neon when a bad storm was movin' in
(Chorus)
Am E
Listen to the opry in a small cafe
Am E
When we stop to get a bite along the way
Am E
Whenever I hear the wheels begin to whine
Am B7
It takes me back to another time
I got a real nice room with a radio and TV
This here motel livin' is the only life for me
And it looks like it'll be rainin' for quite some time
And mixed with the lightnin' is a glow from a neon sign
(Chorus)
There's some big black clouds blowin' in from the west
I've been drivin' all day lord I sure could use some rest
There's a motel up ahead where I can unwind
'Cause I sure love thunderstorms and neon signs
Lord I sure love thunderstorms and neon signs
