Lyrics

[Verse 1]
C7             F
When I saw the first time,
    G            C
the thunder came crashing
C7            F               G        C
Your new blue eyeliner caught my distraction

[Bridge]
    Am7             C/G       F
And like we were two   lovers forming from friction
     G                        G/B  C  Dm   C  G/B
Your mouth caught my ear with such perfect diction
F                          C              G
And there I let you tie my hands back and take me

[Chorus]
       F          C           G
Oh, Lorraine on a Saturday morning
       Dm              G
Oh, Lorraine with your soft,
        C    C/G C
burning hands

[Verse 2]
C7       F            G               C
We fell asleep in the back of the warehouse
  C7          F            G        C
I woke to you kneading and covering my mouth

[Bridge]
    Am7            C/G        F
And like we were hummingbirds screaming at ravens
    G                       G/B  C Dm C    G/B
You started to move me from fact into fable
F                           C     G
And there I let you take me under the table

[Chorus]
       F          C           G
Oh, Lorraine on a Saturday morning
       Dm              G
Oh, Lorraine with your soft,
        C    C/G C
burning hands
