B F#                     B F#                     B
It really breaks my heart, to see a dear old friend
F#  C#          D#m       B     F#
Go down in the worn out place again
B F#                B F#               B
Do you know the sound, of a closing door?
F#        C#         D#m        B      F#  B
Have you heard that sound somewhere before?
       F#     C#       D#m     B   F# C#
Do you wonder if she knows you anymore?

Chorus:
    B                                  F#
I wrapped your love around me like a chain
       B                              C#
But I never was afraid that it would die
F#                  B    D#m
You can dance in a hurricane
D#m                         C#     F# B F#
But only if you're standing in the eye

Where did you learn to walk?
Where did you learn to run away from everything
you love?
Did you think the bottle would ever ease your pain?
Did you think that love's a foolish game?
Did you find someone else to take the blame?

Chorus

F#                  B      D#m
You can dance in a hurricane
D#m                         C#      F#
But only if you're standing in the eye

I am a sturdy soul and there ain't no shame
In lying down in the bed you made
Can you fight the urge to run for another day?
You might make it further, if you learn to stay

Chorus

You can dance in a hurricane
But only if you're standing in the eye
