verse 1 
******** 
Em 
Standing in the foyer of the Grand Hotel 
C 
Suitcase in his hand looking for a bill 
          D                                         B 
There's a hurricane coming and everyone's trying to get away 


-------------------------------------------------------- 
verse 2 
******** 
Em 
Time of the season, time of the year 
    C 
The weather reporter from Miami is clear 
        D                                     Em 
"Find a save place to hide," there's no place here 


-------------------------------------------------------- 
BRIDGE 
******* 
             D 
And then the lights go down 
        C 
In that Caribbean town 

And the fishing boats that go out from the coast

 MUTE WITH RIGHT HAND, AND RAKE THE NOTES
