The Storm

 
    G              C 
The storm has hit, pulled the tide 
Em                 D 
Did its things and waved goodbye 
    G              C 
It left a mess within its stride 
    Em                      D 
But how you get mad at those cloudy eyes? 
 

 
    G                 C 
It blew the wind and spat the rain 
        Em 
Knocked over trees and fences 
    D 
And stopped all of the aeroplanes 
    G                C 
It left its mess and marked its stain 
    Em                           D 
All people cried "Oh please don't come again" 
 

 
C          D         G                 Em 
Now you're left with all this mess outside 
               D 
your own front door 
          C       D     G 
And you only have me to blame for all the 
Em                 D 
things that I have caused 
 

 
     G                  C 
I'm a steam train, I'm a wrecking ball 
     Em                D 
I'm a nuisance, I'm inside your walls 
        G                        C 
I'm that Monday morning when you just can't get up 
          Em                    D 
But you're late for work and the car won't start 
         G 
I am the storm 
         D 
I am the storm 
 

 
       G                  C 
What's done is done, it's had its way 
    Em 
The storm is headin' up the coast 
     D 
Clearin' all that stands in its way 
   G                   C 
It eats the crops, and floods the town 
     Em                         D 
Rips up the road, tears all the branches down 
 

 
C          D         G                 Em 
Now you're left with all this mess outside 
               D 
your own front door 
          C       D     G 
And you only have me to blame for all the 
Em                 D 
things that I have caused 
 

 
     G                  C 
I'm a steam train, I'm a wrecking ball 
     Em                D 
I'm a nuisance, I'm inside your walls 
        G                        C 
I'm that Monday morning when you just can't get up 
          Em                    D 
But you're late for work and the car won't start 
         G 
I am the storm 
         D 
I am the storm
