Ride The Lightning Cifras

NOTE: This was a request for this song to be done in Standard tuning. When Warren Zeiders
      plays this he tunes down a Half-Step. I did the tab in Standard tuning to honor the
      request. I have also included a tab tuned a Half-Step down (below the first tab).
      Please keep this in mind when playing and rating this tab. Thanks.
 
      Thanks to all of you that rated this tab 5 stars.
      I would appreciate it if any of you who use this tab and especially those
      who add it to their favorites would please take the time to rate it 5 stars.

VERSE:
 Dm                     F                C  G
Mama always said I was born on the wild side
     Dm                         F                        C  G
One foot in the flames and the other trying to walk the line
      Dm
Can't say I never saw it coming
F                        C   G
I could see the warning signs
 Dm                     F                C  G
Mama always said I was born on the wild side
 
         Bb
I guess mama was right
                 C
'Cause when the clock strikes midnight
 
 
CHORUS:
                Dm
Gonna ride the lightning
          F
Feel the thunder
          C                 G
Till the darkness pulls me under
 
      Dm
Gonna fly on,
          F
Wings of fire
          C                  G
Pray the good Lord leads me higher
 
        Dm             F       C  G
Singing oh, when they call me home
         Dm             F       C  G
Singing, oh, when they call me home
                        Dm F C G
Gonna ride the lightning
 
 
VERSE:
          Dm                   F                      C  G
There's a man in a black coat standing at a crossroads
       Dm                      F                     C  G
With a pad in his hands and a long list of lost souls
     Dm                   F                   C  G
They say he flips a coin forged out of fools gold
 
          Dm                   F                      C  G
There's a man in a black coat standing at a crossroads
 
           Bb
I hope he lets me pass by
       C
And I close my eyes
 
 
CHORUS:
                    Dm
I'm gonna ride the lightning

Till the darkness pulls me under
 
      Dm
Gonna fly on,

Wings of fire

Pray the good Lord leads me higher

Singing oh, when they call me home
         Dm             F       C  G
Singing, oh, when they call me home
