[Verse 1]
D
It was just startin' to drizzle as I walked out the door
G Em
But I've delivered papers in the rain like that before
D
3:30 in the morning, I was happy as a lark
G A D
As I grabbed my bike and rode into the dark
D
I peddled through the neighbourhood, the weather on my mind
G Em
The wind was pickin' up and howling louder all the time
D
The sky turned like a cauldron and the distant thunder roared
G A D
And I knew that I was in for quite a storm
G A
A little rain never hurt no one, so I kept pressing on
D G A
And I tried to tell myself, "It's always darkest before the dawn"
[Verse 2]
D
Lightning struck an oak tree as I left off my bike
G Em
The siren started wailing but there was no good place to hide
D
I knew without a doubt, there was a twister touching down
G A D
So I crawled into a covert to wait it out
G A
The little bit of courage I had left was almost gone
D G A
But I tried to tell myself, "It's always darkest before the dawn"
[Verse 3]
G Bm
And then the nightmare started, it got deafeningly loud
D A
Every fibre in me screamed out but I couldn't make a sound
G F# Bm
The whirling of a vortex, a violent carousel
G A
It sounded like a freight train was dragging me to hell
[Instrumental]
G F F# Bm
G F F#
Dm D# A
And this was my prayer
C Bb G A Em D G A
Save me from this terrible nightmare
[Verse 4]
G D A
That was when I saw my family with my eyes shut real' tight
G Bm A
Would they know how much I loved them if this was how I died?
G D A Em D A
No, I vowed I'd not be murdered by a monster in the sky that night
