Whirlwind

C     Em    F     G7


[Verse 1]
          C
  On the first day that I saw you
          Em
  Walkin' home in your muddy boots
    Gm                              F
  'Cross the empty fields at harvest time
Fm
  Hummin' a familiar tune
C
  I stopped and sang with you
D7                             G7
  We watched the yellow moon rise


[Verse 2]
C
  Later on outside your fence
Em
  We shared a little dance
Gm                         F
  I knew I loved ya even then
Fm
  And in that autumn sky
C
  We watched a storm go by
G7                          C
  It's been that way ever since


[Chorus]
             F
Oh babe it's sure been a whirlwind
 F                            C
A twirlin' twister touchin' down on the ground
      C
In a dozen little sleepy towns
  F                          F
Blowin' like a gale full of rain clouds and thunder
           C
Without hearts full of hunger
          G                         F
And our hopes lookin' upward once again
  G                 C            Em         F          G7
Babe it's been a whirlwind


[Verse 3]
             C
  There were babies died and babies born
Em
  Flood and drought and world war
Gm                                 F
  We saw the worst years and the best
Fm
  In every town another chance
C
  Tryin' to build a winning hand
D7                                     G7
  Even when the cards were stacked against


[Verse 4]
         C
  Oh and I remember why we dance
Em
  Gentle as a passing a glance
       Gm                               F
  The warmth of your breath against my cheek
       Fm
  Then hearin' that loud thunder roll
C
  On and on we strolled
G7                               C
  Went racin' home down rainy streets


[Chorus]
             F
Oh babe it's sure been a whirlwind
 F                            C
A twirlin' twister touchin' down on the ground
      C
In a dozen little sleepy towns
  F                          F
Blowin' like a gale full of rain clouds and thunder
           C
Without hearts full of hunger
          G                         F
And our hopes lookin' upward once again
  G                 Dm            Em            F            G7
Babe it's been a whirlwind

             F
Oh babe it's sure been a whirlwind
 F                            C
A twirlin' twister touchin' down on the ground
      C
In a dozen little sleepy towns
  F                          F
Blowin' like a gale full of rain clouds and thunder
           C
Without hearts full of hunger
          G                         F
And our hopes lookin' upward once again
  G7                 C        F
Babe it's been a whirlwind

    G7                C            Em            F            G7            C
Oh Babe it's been a whirlwind
