Am C F
When I lost my way I was dashed upon the rocks

Battered by the waves screaming darling will I drown

Am C G
Or will the tempest make a man of me

=========

Dm Am G
The rain will cease and leave the sun to fight as best it can

F C G6
What is love if not the perfect storm

F C Em Am /G
As high as the wind blows as low as I can be

What is love if not the perfect storm

Am C F
I know she thought the clouds were darker than they'd been before

Me I saw the sky was waiting and I couldn't tell what for

Am C G
So I bought myself a boat I've not a penny to my name
