Was Wednesday evening when first we heard the word

It did not come by train nor bird

E7                                  Am  
T'was when Ben Pike stepped down to say

F          G                 C
"This old town's gonna blow away"

G7                                      C
Chain lightning, frightening as it may seem

G                         C
Must not be mistaken for just another dream

E7                                   Am  
Justice of peace don't know his own fate

F             G                   C
But he'll go down in the shelter late

[Verse 3]
G                              C
Hiding your money won't do no good, no good

G                                             C
Build a big wall, you know you would if you could, yeah!

E7                                Am  
When clouds of warning come into view

F                  G                      C
It'll get the old woman right out of her shoe
[Chorus]

Look Out Cleveland, the storm is coming through

Dm  Em        F            G      C
    And it's running right up on you

F               C/E
Look out Houston, there'll be thunder on the hill
