[Intro]

Dm C G

(HAMILTON)

In the eye of a hurricane

C G

There is quiet

For just a moment

C G

A yellow sky

When I was seventeen a hurricane

C G

Destroyed my town

I didn’t drown

C G

I couldn’t seem to die

I wrote my way out

Fsus4 Dm

Wrote everything down far as I could see

I wrote my way out

Fsus4 F Csus4 C

I looked up and the town had its eyes on me

They passed a plate around

C/E

Total strangers

Dm/F Fsus2 G

Moved to kindness by my story

Dm F

Raised enough for me to book passage on a

Ship that was New York bound…

D5 F5

I wrote my way out of hell

I wrote my way to revolution

A5 C5 D5

I was louder than the crack in the bell

F5 G5

I wrote Eliza love letters until she fell

A5 C5 D5

I wrote about the Constitution and defended it well

F5 G5

And in the face of ignorance and resistance

A5 C5 D5

I wrote financial systems into existence

And when my prayers to God were met with indifference

I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance

In the eye of a hurricane

C G

There is quiet

For just a moment

C G

A yellow sky

I was twelve when my mother died

C G

She was holding me

We were sick and she was holding me

C G

I couldn’t seem to die
