Verse 1
=======

Am             C         F
When I lost my way I was dashed upon the rocks

Am                C              F
I found myself with you out on the sea

Am              C               F
Battered by the waves screaming darling will I drown

Am               C             G
Or will the tempest make a man of me

Refrain 1
=========

Dm                  Am               G
The rain will cease and leave the sun to fight as best it can

F               C               G6
What is love if not the perfect storm

F           C             Em           Am    /G
As high as the wind blows as low as I can be

F               C               G6
What is love if not the perfect storm

verse 2
=======

Am                   C                  F
I know she thought the clouds were darker than they'd been before

Am            C            F
She flew away and summer never came

Am           C                     F
Me I saw the sky was waiting and I couldn't tell what for

Am              C               G
So I bought myself a boat I've not a penny to my name

Refrain 2
=========

Dm                  Am               G
The rain will cease and leave the sun to fight as best it can

F               C               G6
What is love if not the perfect storm

F           C             Em           Am    /G
As high as the wind blows as low as I can be

F               C               G6
What is love if not the perfect storm

The rain will cease and leave the sun to fight as best it can

F               C               G6
What is love if not the perfect storm

F             C               Em               Am       /G
I try to find a way to keep you safe I'm nowhere near the shore

F               C               G6
What is love if not the perfect storm

F               G               Am
Honey what is love if not the perfect storm
