Awhile back someone posted a request for some David Wilcox.  I have taken a lot
of music off of here so I am returning the favor and posting David's "Eye of a
Hurricane."  Hope you enjoy it.  This was taken from Acoustic Guitar
March/April 1992.

C
Tank is full, the switch is on
Am7
Night is warm, cops are gone
Fadd9
Rocket bike is all her own
G
It's called a Hurricane
C
She told me once it's quite a ride
     Am7
It's shaped so there's this place inside
     Fadd9
Where if you're moving you can hide
G
Safe within the rain

Chorus

Fadd9
She wants to run away
G                                C
But there's nowhere that she can go
Fadd9            Em6             D9sus4
Nowhere the pain  won't come again
Fadd9           Em6     G                      C
But she can hide   hide   in the pouring rain  
Fadd9            G              Fadd9    G  (don't second or third time)
She rides the eye of a Hurricane

Tell the truth, explain to me
How you got this need for speed
She laughed and said "it might just be
The next best thing to love."
Hope is gone and she confessed that
When you lay your dream to rest
You can get what's second best
But it's hard to get enough

Chorus

Bridge
Am7         G       Fadd9
We saw her ride so fast last night
Am7    G    Fadd9          G
Racing by a flash of light

Riding quick, the street was dark
A shining truck she thought was parked
It blocked her path, stopped her heart
But not the Hurricane
She saw her chance to slip the trap
There was just the room to pass in back
But then it moved, closed the gap
She never felt the pain

Chorus

Coda

Fadd9             G
She rides the eye  of the Hurricane
C    Am7   Fadd9  G   C


That's it. The 's' in the intro indicates a slide, the'p' a pull-off, and the
'h' a hammer-on.  The chords are mostly strummed with a downstroke and you mute
the strings lightly with your right palm, accentuating the lower strings
throughout.  David does the occasional hammer on, pull-off on the fourth and
fifth string, but I'll let you play with it.
