Blown Away - Acoustic Version

Lyrics

Dry lightning cracks across the skies
 Those storm clouds gather in her eyes
 Her daddy was a mean old mister
 Mama was an angel in the ground
 The weather man called for a twister
 She prayed blow it down
 There's not enough rain in Oklahoma
 To wash the sins out of that house
 There's not enough wind in Oklahoma
 To rip the nails out of the past
 Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away,
 Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown
 away
 'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday
 Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
 Blown away
 She heard those sirens screaming out
 Her daddy laid there passed out on the couch
 She locked herself in the cellar
 Listened to the screaming of the wind
 Some people call it taking shelter
 She called it sweet revenge
 Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away,
 Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown
 away
 'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday
 Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
 Blown away
 There's not enough rain in Oklahoma
 To wash the sins out of that house
 There's not enough wind in Oklahoma
 To rip the nails out of the past
 Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away (blown
 away)
 Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown
 away (blown away)
 'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday
 (blown away)
 Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
 Blown away, blown away, blown away, blown away,
 blown away
