G
I'm still alive, don't ever doubt that
Though I fall asleep, I never fall back
Took a ride to our friend's house
Named forty-second street the day I burned it down

Em            C                      G
Just started running like a hurricane

Next thing I know we're at the fast train
One that never works, the second it starts raining
If you're bored, you should say it now
Before the sky turns gray and we're left underground

We'll have to dig a tunnel to escape
Oh, my love, just started running like a hurricane

Chorus:
Em                         C
Who'll wake you up in the middle of the night?
          G                              D
Make you laugh, make you cry, make you think
about your whole life
Em                    C
Nobody here got that magic anymore
       G                         D
I got lines, I got jokes, I got time enough
to tell it all
Am
I think it's alright, I think it's okay
C                                      G
You make my heart beat like a hurricane
 G
Like a hurricane

We hit the coast, sun it goes down
Thinking of the dead, they never stick around
No parade, there's no crying out
It's just these neon signs, paper thrown around
Make it hardest coming out the gate

But then you say all we need is car suspension
A little money and our pretension
Maybe someone to live for,
maybe someone to mention how
How we look so much better, when light,
it turns gold

While the night is here, we celebrate
Oh my love, you got me running like a hurricane

Chorus:
Who'll wake you up in the middle of the night?
Make you laugh, make you cry,
make you think about your whole life
Nobody here got that magic anymore
I got lines, I got jokes,
I got time enough to tell it all
I think it's alright, I think it's okay
You make my heart beat like a hurricane

Em               C           G
Now everybody's feeling angry
                Bm                 Em
And I remember feeling the same way
               C               G
All around me gears fell slowly
                        Bm               Am
These overclocks, they started changing shape
                       C
Just love me, it's okay
                               D       G D C
You make my heart beat like a hurricane
             G       D C
Like a hurricane yeah

Chorus:
Who'll wake you up in the middle of the night?
Make you laugh, make you cry,
make you think about your whole life
Nobody here got that magic anymore
I got lines, I got jokes,
I got time enough to tell it all
I think it's alright, I think it's okay
You make my heart beat like a hurricane

Like a hurricane
Like a hurricane yeah
Like a hurricane yeah
