G                                      C             Em
So many people have told me about the world and its ways,
G
I never believed them at first and I cursed 'em
C                      Em
I threw myself to the wind yeah,
G
And then my mind finds you in Venice
C                      Em
Remember the good old days?
G
We had a fight the night before we left
C                    Em
My head was being a mess

Em              E            Am
But there is a hurricane within me
Am  G/B C     G   D      C
And it takes control of me

Chorus:
C                 G
And Did I let you in,
                    Bm
and Did I push you out?
            Em7      D     C
You know I think I still love you,
                       G   D
Are you still heading south?
           C      G                            Bm
And Did I let you into it, and did I sell you out?
           Em7     D      C
You know I can't quite remember,
               G       Bm    C
What life is about, without you,
                   G
Can I steal your grace?

Of all of the people in all of the world
With you, there's always something to say
You never cared if I made it a winner or
Lost it on the same day
I always thought that I was invincible
Always somewhere to go
But now I know that there is just one soul
You get to take away

But there is a hurricane within me
And it takes control of me

Chorus:
And did I let you in
Or did I push you out?
You know, I think I still love you
Are you still heading south without me?
Can I steal your grace?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, your grace, woo

Did I let you in?
Did I push you out again?
You know, I think I still love you
Are you still heading south?
Did I let you into it
And then I pushed you out?
You know, I can't quite remember
What life is about without you
Can I steal your grace?
Take, take, yeah, your grace

Yeah, yeah, your grace
Yeah, yeah, your grace
Yeah, your grace
Yeah, your grace
