The Hurricane And The Helicopter Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Well, [C]he watched the bloody sunrise
on the Gulf of Mexico
When he [G]tied his chopper down
before the [C]winds began to blow
Then he [F]thought as he was staring
at the [C]dark and stormy sea
Of the [G]stranded crew on Tower [C]43
Well, the [F]hurricane was movin'
in a hundred miles an hour
And the [C]be st his ship could do was 85
But he [F]swore if he asked me enough
to lead him to the tower
He would [G]do his best
to bring him back to [C]life[G][C]
So [G]he [C]flew out to the tower
and the winds were getting bad
Though [G]his ship was underpowered,
he pulled [C]everything he had
And [F]ahead a darkened wall of rain
was [C]all that he could see
He [G]turned the light on Tower [C]43
Well, [F]the hurricane was movin' in
at 100 miles an hour
And the be[C]st his ship would do was 85
But he [F]swore if he had speed enough
to beat it to the tower
He would [G]do his best
to bring them back [C]alive[A]
When he [D]got there
it was all that he could do to set her down
But he [A]loaded all the men
and flew them [D]back to solid ground
And they [G]last they ever saw him,
he was head[D]ing out from shore
To the [A]stranded men on Tower [D]44
Well, the [G]hurricane was moving
in a hundred miles an hour
And the be[D]st his ship would do
was fade in fire
And they [G]knew he never had a chance
to feed it to the tower
But he [A]did his best
to bring them back [D]alive
Yes, he [A]did his best
to bring them back alive
[D]
