    LIGHTNING DOES THE WORK    Chad Brock

G                                 F
You know nothing's getting done when talking is all you hear
C                                  G
By someone reving up a truck and never put in gear
C
You don't see a cowboy run his mouth and strut around
       G                               F                G
Just takes the bull by the horns and throws him to the ground
F                                  G
Taking care of business not just putting on a show
F                         G
When it gets down to it every body knows.

CHORUS
               C
It ain't the smoke it's the fire that gets the burning done
        G
If it wasn't for the bullet no body'd fear the gun
Em                                     C                   G
It ain't the bark, It ain't the growl It's the bite that hurts
G                             D                  G
Thunder's just a noise boys, lightning does the work


G                            F
You can talk about the farm or you can plow the ground
C                                  G
I go where the rusty nail is and hammer it on down
C
Well you can stand there in the dark cussing at the night
    G                                     F           G 
Or you can just reach out your hand and turn on the light
F                                     G
There ain't no limit in this life to how far you can get
F                                G
But if you're going all the way you've got to break a sweat
Go to chorus
           Em              C           G
Well I've heard thunder talking up a storm
G
Rattling my windows knocking on my door
Em                                 C             G
Well I've seen lightning blow a cypress tree in half
        D                                                 C  
But thunder's busy taking but lightning's kickin' ___.    Lead, chorus,
G                                  D                G
Thunder's just a noise boys but lightning does the work
Vamp on  G F C G for the rest of this song
Laugh, aw yeah gonna get cha get cha good
