G
Well the moon moved past Nebraska
                                          Am
And spilled laughter on them cold Dakota hills
                  G
And the angels danced on Jacob's stairs
             G
Yeah they danced on Jacob's stairs
              C
There is the silence in the badlands
           C                             Am
And over Kansas the whole universe was stilled
            G                    G
With the whisper of a prayer, whisper of a prayer
              F
And a single hawk bursts into flight
            Am                            G
And in the east the whole horizon is in flame

              F
I feel the thunder in the sky
             F            Am
And see the sky about to rain
       F                 G                 C
And I hear the prairies calling out Your name


[Verse 2]
        G
I can feel the earth tremble
                                    Am
Beneath the rumbling of the buffalo hooves
         G
And the fury in the pheasant's wings
              G
Yeah there's fury in the pheasant's wings
                     C
And it tells me the Lord is in his temple
                C
And there is still a faith
                             Am
That can make the mountains move
                     G
And a love that can make the heavens ring
                G
Yeah I've seen love make Heaven ring
            F
Where the secret rivers meet
              Am                        G
beneath the shadow of the Keeper of the plains

              F
I feel the thunder in the sky
             F            Am
And see the sky about to rain
       F                  G                C
And I hear the prairies calling out Your name


[Verse 3]
          G
From the place where morning gathers
                                        Am
You can look sometimes forever till you see
      G
What time may never know
      G
What time may never know
          C
How the Lord takes by its corners
                                  G                  Am
This whole world and shakes us forward and shakes us free
    G
To run wild with the hope
    G
To run wild with the hope
                     F
The hope that this thirst will not last long
              Am                                G
That it will soon drown in a song not sung in vain

             F
I feel the thunder in the sky
         F            Am
See the sky about to rain
       F                  G                C
And I hear the prairies calling out your name


[Outro]
                  F
And I know this thirst will not last long
               Am                                G
That it will soon drown in a song not sung in vain

             F
I feel the thunder in the sky
         F            Am
See the sky about to rain
       F                  G               C
And I hear the prairies calling out your name.
