[Chorus]
  A                                  Em
I feel like goin' surfing in a hurricane
  A                                     B7
I feel like makin' love in the pouring rain
Em                  G       A                C
 I ain't afraid of dyin', I don't need to explain
  Em               B7                Em
I feel like goin' surfing in a hurricane
[Verse 1]
Em
We left the bar last night about half past eight
                                          B7
Down to the Alabama shore, not the Aloha state
Em                         G
  The storm had turned, it was too late
    A                     C
and we ain't the kind to evacuate
    Em               B             Em
The impact zone is callin' out my name
[Verse 2]
  Em
A sea monster night full of nothing but fright and fear
                                                 B7
Saint Christopher might not get our asses outta here
Em                  G
  Flooded roads and trailer parks,
    A                C
and maybe a tornado lurkin' in the dark
  Em              B               Em
A perfect life to ride into eternity
[Chorus]
  A                                  Em
I feel like goin' surfing in a hurricane
  A                                     B7
I feel like makin' love in the pouring rain
Em                 G       A                C
I ain't afraid of dyin', I don't need to explain
  Em               B7                Em
I feel like goin' surfing in a hurricane
[Bridge] (spoken)
C                      G
  The waves were hard, the seas were high
D
 Wicked thunderbolts flashing in my eyes
C                      G
We swam out to the sandbar in the dark
B7                                          Em
Howling at the moon, cussin' at the sharks!
[Verse 3]
  Em
I made the first drop and my cojones were in my throat
                                                                B7
Then the second wave launched me like a rocket, that's all she wrote
Em             G
Upside down, water on the brain
A                         C
Pinned on the bottom but feelin' no pain
Em                       B7             Em
Screamin' like a daemon, paddlin' out again
[Chorus]
  A                                  Em
I feel like goin' surfing in a hurricane
  A                                     B7
I feel like makin' love in the pouring rain
Em                  G             A             C
 I ain't afraid of dyin', there's no need to explain
  Em               B7                Em
I feel like goin' surfing in a hurricane
  A                                  Em
I feel like goin' surfing in a hurricane
  A                                     B7
I feel like makin' love in the pouring rain
Em                  G           A              C
 I ain't afraid of dyin', I got no fear in my brain
  Em               B7                Em
I feel like goin' surfing in a hurricane
  Em               B7                Em
I feel like goin' surfing in a hurricane
