"The Storm"
Sturgill Simpson
High Top Mountain (2013)
Capo 3
[Verse 1]
E
Please don't think me a lazy man
D A E
Because I've been sitting around all day with the blues
E
I know how it looks but don't misunderstand
D A E
It's just that I can tell a storm's about to brew
D A E
Cause there's thunder inside my mind
D A E
There's lightning behind these eyes
[Chorus]
D A E
There's a lull and the wind is dying down
D A E
Don't let it fool you the storm ain't done
D A E
Flood waters rolling in and my hearts gonna drown
F#m A E
Our love's wilted like a flower that ain't got enough sun
[Solo]
D A E
D A E
[Verse 2]
E
Well the thunder in my head might go away
D A E
And the river of pain will flow back to the sea
E
If you would only come back home to stay
D A E
It'd bring a stop to the rain and happiness to me
E
Well if you would just come back I'd be so grateful
D A E
And the storm would be over
E F#m
The world wouldn't seem so mean and hateful
D A E
And I'd lay you down on a bed of yellow clover
[Chorus]
D A E
There's a lull and the wind is dying down
D A E
Don't let it fool you the storm ain't done
D A E
Flood waters rolling in and my hearts gonna drown
F#m A E
Our love's wilted like a flower that ain't got enough sun
[Solo]
D A E D A E
D A E D A E
[Chorus]
D A E
There's a lull and the wind is dying down
D A E
Don't let it fool you the storm ain't done
D A E
Flood waters rolling in and my hearts gonna drown
F#m A E
Our love's wilted like a flower that ain't got enough sun
[Outro/Solo]
