Tryin To Reason With Hurricane Season

Jimmy Buffett


Tom: D

D
Squalls out on the gulf stream
G                 D
Big storms coming soon
  G                D
I passed out in my hammock
E7                    A7
God, I slept way past noon
G                     D
Stood up and tried to focus
                                C  G  A
I hoped I wouldn't have to look far
  G                         D
I knew I could use a Bloody Mary
       A7                      D
So I stumbled next door to the bar


[Chorus]
D         Bm
And now I must confess
        F#m
I could use some rest
G              A7             D
I can't run at this pace very long
          Bm
Yes, it's quite insane
           F#m
I think it hurts my brain
       G                  A7           D
But it cleans me out and then I can go on


[Verse]
        D
There's something about this Sunday
       G             D
It's a most peculiar gray
G                  D
Strolling down the avenue
       E7        A7
That's known as A1A
G                     D
Feeling tired, then I got inspired
                                 C    G A
And I knew that it wouldn't last long
   G           D                           A7
So all alone I walked back home, sat on my beach
                        D
And then I made up this song


[Chorus]
D         Bm
And now I must confess
        F#m
I could use some rest
G              A7             D
I can't run at this pace very long
          Bm
Yes, it's quite insane
           F#m
I think it hurts my brain
       G                  A7           D
But it cleans me out and then I can go on


[Verse]
          D
Well, the wind is blowin' harder now
      G               D
Fifty knots or there abouts
        G                 D
There's white caps on the ocean
        E7                 A7
And I'm watching for water spouts
     G                 D
It's time to close the shutters
                C      G A
It's time to go inside
     G                D
In a week I'll be in gay Paris;
         A7                   D
That's a mighty long airplane ride


[Chorus]
D         Bm
And now I must confess
        F#m
I could use some rest
G              A7             D
I can't run at this pace very long
          Bm
Yes, it's quite insane
           F#m
I think it hurts my brain
       G                  A7           D
But it cleans me out and then I can go on
        G                 A7            D
Yes, It cleans me out and then I can go on
