Tom: Bm
Bm G
Lay on down and I hit the lights
G D
Close my eyes on a quiet night
G D
I feel a dream and I âm sleeping too
G D
Hearinâ little drops on my windowsill
[Pre-Chorus]
G D A Bm
I know that sound, the smell of dotting rain
G D
She moves my weather vane
[Chorus]
Bm A D G
She is the storm, and the calm, that proceeds
Bm A D G
The howling wind and the still air in-between
Bm D G
And I see, the clouds rolling in
D
With a force to knock me down
A D
And pick me up again
[Verse 2]
G
She calls in quick no warning signs
Bm D G D
The lightning strikes from wild skies
G D
The things I hope are waterproof
Bm D G D
Are tested as she rains through my roof
[Pre-Chorus]
G D A Bm
All I can do, is wait for it to pass
G D
Hold down, and hope to last
[Chorus]
Bm A D G
She is the storm, and the calm, that proceeds
Bm A D G
The howling wind and the still air in-between
Bm D G
And I see, the clouds rolling in
D
With a force to knock me down
A D
And pick me up again
Six measure pause, then:
Bm D G D A G x2 (First four strim twice, last two four times, continue into Verse 3)
[Verse 3]
Bm D G D
Now the streets are flooding and the powers out
A G
No use running and I âm heading out
Bm G G D
I pull my hatch and I batten down
A G
I face the storm and I hold my ground
G for two more measures, then:
Bm G Bm D A (each for a measure; A is two)
[Chorus]
Bm A D G
She is the storm, and the calm, that proceeds
Bm A D G
The howling wind and the still air in-between
Bm D G
And I see, the clouds rolling in
D
With a force to knock me down
A D
And pick me up again
[Outro]
G D A Bm
And when she leaves, I want her back again
G D A Bm
Her storm, I took comfort in
G D A D
Mmmm, I took comfort in
Bm A Bm
Mmmm
