A Storm Is Coming
 
Am F
Oh if I could fly I would close my eyes
G Am
Spread my wings and fly away from all this pain
F
Search the stars and find a place in space and time
G Am
I am seeking shelter from this chillin’ rain
 
Am F
Honey, there’s a storm comin’, sure and certain
G Am
Gonna turn this dusty highway into forty miles of mud
F
Honey theres a storm comin’, sure and certain
G Am F
I can feel it in my belly, I can feel it in my gut
Am F
Theres a storm comin’
G C E
That river is no stranger, its anger knows no bounds
E7 Am G
Honey theres a big storm comin
F G
Gather up the children, head for higher ground
Am
A storm is comin’
 
See that silver lining, that’s where the sun is shining
As sure as there is a heaven there will be a brighter day
May not be tomorrow, oh, but all this sorrow in a solitary moment
This too will pass away but today
 
Theres a storm comin’
Gonna turn this Texas highway into forty miles of mud
Honey there’s a storm comin’
I feel it in my belly, I feel it in my guts
Theres a big storm comin
