[Verse 1]
G G
You’re headed west on the College street car
Em C G
and I’m stumbling down Princess alone.
G G
Tryna stay sober enough so I can turn the bar,
Em C G
tired of always looking at my phone.
[Pre-Chorus]
C C
Oh, the distance in between us means, we’re living different lives,
G G
it wasn’t long ago that they were one.
C C
I’m up all hours of the night and you’re working nine to five,
G G
I’m getting used to morning coffee on my own.
[Chorus]
C G
Back when we used to be a hurricane,
D Em D
you were getting high like limestone cocaine.
C G D D
We used to be a hurricane, I can’t no more.
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
G G
I studied all the heartbreak in all our favorite songs,
Em C G
how much better did they sound when we were young.
G G
I told you that I loved you more than the road is long,
Em C G
but now we feel the weight of four oh one.
[Pre-Chorus]
C C
It’s so much in our hometown, back when we lived downtown,
G G
I don’t blame you for leaving it behind.
C C
That basement apartment on Rio Street,
G G
you swore and said I truly lost my mind.
[Chorus]
C G
Back when we used to be a hurricane,
D Em D (C)
you were getting high off limestone cocaine, waiting tables in the rain.
C G D D
We used to be a hurricane, I just can’t no more.
[Bridge]
C C
You’re not handing out forgiveness, I’m not trying to change your mind,
G D*
sell you our new stories, try to cut a couple lines.
We’re running out of [Interlude] time.

[End-Chorus]
C G
Back when we used to be a hurricane,
D Em D (C)
we were coming down off limestone cocaine, waiting tables in the rain.
C G D D
We used to be a hurricane, I can’t no more, I can’t no more.
Em C G Em C G
Ooh, we used to be a hurricane, I was getting high off limestone cocaine.
Em C G D D
We used to be a hurricane, I can’t no more, no more.
Am C
You’re not handing out forgiveness, I’m not trying to change your mind,
G D*
sell you our new stories, try to cut anymore lines. We both ran out of time.
