[A] [B] It's not how fast you can go, your heart is moving double flow.
[B] And you feel comfort, you can forget [A] about [B] fear.
[A] [B] It's a windy survival, [D] more than just a heart crash, [Em] more than just a dotted line.
[B]
[A] [B] It's not just a survival, it's not a thing, the heartbreak's lying uphill.
It's something's on the face, you [A] wanna stay in the race.
[B]
It's called a blind edition, [D] more than sensory, [G]
more than a finish [A] line.
[B] Heartbeat's a burning need, it's a long [E] road.
[B] From the [E] past, [F#] the beat is never fast.
[E] Something always [G#m] fires a light, it gets in [D#m] your life.
[B] [E] One moment in time, [F#] your dreams come alive.
[E] Lightning, lightning [F#] in the summer sky.

[B] Your need is made of the low, you can [A] wreck it on sight of the road.
[B] You can miss a sight, but nobody [A] gets a free ride.
[B] It's a delightful corner, [A] more than just a spark.
[G] More than just a bottom line, [B] shot in the dark.
And [E] the love, [A]

The beat is never fast.
[E] Something always fires a [G#m] light, it gets in [D#m] your [B] life.
One [E] moment [F#] in time, your dreams come [E] alive.
Lightning, lightning in [F#] the summer sky.
