Capo 5
I think it sounds much more like the recording with the capo on 5
INTRO
E A x4
VERSE I
E A
Stopped me on the corner, I swear you hit me like a vision
E
I-I-I wasn't expecting
B E
But who am I to tell fate where it’s supposed to go with it?
A
Don't you blink you might miss it
E
See we got a right to just love it or leave it, you find it and keep it
B
'Cause it ain't every day you get the chance to say
CHORUS
E A E
Oh, this is how it starts, lighting strikes the heart
B
It goes off like a gun, brighter than the sun
E A C#m
Oh, it could be the stars, falling from the sky
B (mute)
Shining how we want, brighter than the sun
INTERLUDE
E A x2
VERSE II
E A
I've never seen it, but I found this love, I wanna feed it
E B
You better believe, I'm gonna treat it better than anything I've ever had
'Cause you're so damn beautiful
E A
Read it, it's signed and delivered, let's seal it
E
Boy, we go together like peanuts and paydays, Marley and reggae
B
And everybody needs to get a chance to say
CHORUS
E A E
Oh, this is how it starts, lighting strikes the heart
B
It goes off like a gun, brighter than the sun
E A C#m
Oh, it could be the stars, falling from the sky
B (mute)
Shining how we want, brighter than the sun
INTERLUDE
E A x2

BRIDGE
C#m A E
Everything is like a whiteout, 'cause we shicka-shicka-shine down
B
Even when-the-when-the light's out, but I can see you glow
C#m A F#m
Got my head up in the rafters, got me happy ever after
(G) A (mute)
Never felt this way before, ain't felt this way before
I swear you hit me like a vision
I-I-I wasn’t expecting
But who am I to tell fate where it's supposed to go?
