w/m Billy Jim Baker
BozoRowMusicBMI
Dm* F G w/m BillyJimBaker bmi
Dm* G 03/04/14
Love is like white lightening
C E7
Just a little bit sip, a little bitty nip
Am/Em/D G
Kisses burn then lay sweet
A
On your lips
Dm* G
Love can be frightening
C E7
Like a lightening bolt, it can shake your soul
Am/Em/D
Jolt you with joy
G A..........
And leave an angel to behold
D
AND I WANT TO GET TO KNOW YOU
YOUR SMILE AND WHO YOU ARE
A
AS WE LAY IN WILDFLOWERS, UNDER TENNESSEE STARS
D
THE RHYTHM OF THE RIVER SINGS A LOVERS LULLABY
A
AND THE HILLS THEY ARE SLEEPING UP AGAINST THE SKY
E7
BUT TONITE YOU'RE MINE
G A Dm* F G
BY THE LIGHT OF THOUSAND FIREFLYS
G A
AND THAT OLE SMOKY MOONSHINE
