End
G
There's a cold wind in the desert, the sky is scorched and blessed
Cadd9                                      D
There's thunder in the eastern skies and rain clouds to the west      
                G
There's a crease on the horizon they call the devil's hand
                                                                        D                         G
And there's a new day dawning for a storm chasing man
 
There's a body by the roadside, it's a road of wreck and ruin
I'm fifty miles from shelter here and five hundred miles from you
There's a weight of expectation it's hard to understand
And there’s a new day dawning for a storm chasing man
 
C                                                                                                             G
And it's okay, no it's just fine, you said it's over and I said goodbye
                         C
And if you're asking where I'm going
                                                                                D             C
You'll always find me where the wind is blowing
                                D             C – C/B – Am7 – G
With a tornado tan
 
I wish that I was like you, I thought we were the same
But you prefer the summer sun and I prefer the rain
From super cells to cyclones, from Snyder to Cheyenne
The time is coming for a storm chasing man
 
Em – D – C – C-C/B-Am7
Em – D-C – verse chords
 
And it's okay, no it's just fine you said it's over and I said goodbye
And if you're asking where I'm going
You'll always find me where the wind is blowing
With a tornado tan
 
It rises in the valley silently at first
Gathering intensity 'til it's a wall of death and dirt
I leave the road forever, it's time to make a stand
And it's now or never for a storm chasing man
 
       G                           D
It’ll eat you up and spit you out
Am                         C7
Life you up and throw you down
                G                                             D                             G
But I’m alive and I’m living like a storm chasing man
