no capo
palm mute the choruses
[Intro]
C F C
[Verse]
F
We had a difficult winter
We had a rough few months
C
When the storms came in off the coast
If felt like they broke everything on us at once
[Pre-Chorus]
F
It's easy enough to talk about blitz spirit
When your not holding the roof up or knee deep in it
C
And the pictures and the papers got ruined by the rain
And we wondered if they'd ever get dry again
[Chorus]
Am G F
But I don't wanna spend the whole of my life indoors
Am G F
Laying low, waiting on the next storm
Am G F
I don't wanna spend the whole of my life inside
Am G C
I wanna step out and face the sunshine
[Verse]
F
We lost faith in the omens
We lost faith in the Gods
C
We just ended up clutching at the empty rituals
Like gamblers clutching long odds
[Pre-Chorus]
F
And I don't care what the weatherman is saying
Because the last time that I saw him, he was on his knees, he was praying
C
The preachers and the scientists got soaked just the same
And we wondered if we'd ever get dry again
[Chorus]
Am G F
But I don't wanna spend the whole of my life indoors
Am G F
Laying low, waiting on the next storm
Am G F
I don't wanna spend the whole of my life inside
Am G F
I wanna step out and face the sunshine
[Bridge]
C -once
So open the shutters
Dm -once
Raise up the masts
Am G F
Rejoice! Rebuild! The storm has passed!
C
Cast up the crutches
Dm
Cut off the cast
Am G F
Rejoice! Rebel! The storm has passed!
Am G F
Rejoice! Rebel! The storm has passed!
[Chorus]
Am G F
But I don't wanna spend the whole of my life indoors (Rejoice! Rejoice!)
Am G F
Laying low, I'm waiting on the next storm (Rejoice! Rebuild! The storm has passed!)
Am G F
I don't wanna spend the whole of my life inside (Rejoice! Rejoice!)
Am G F
I wanna step out and face the sunshine (Rejoice! Rebuild! The storm has passed!)
[Outro]
Am G F
I'm not gonna live the whole of my life indoors
Am-once G-once C-once
I'm gonna step out and face the next storm
