Intro: play twice
(G - D - C - G - C - D - G)GDCGCDG
I bought a cheap watch from the crazy man, floating down Canal.
GDCGCDG
It doesn’t use numbers or moving hands, It always just says now.
GDCGCDG
Now you may be thinking that I was had, But this watch is never wrong.
GDCGCDG
And if I have trouble the warranty said, Breathe in, breathe out, move on.
Chorus:
DCG
And it rained, It was nothing really new
DCG
And it blew, Seen all that before
DCG
And it poured, The earth began to strain
DCGA#G
Pontchartrain, Leaking through the door, Tides at war
GDCGCDG
If a hurricane doesn’t leave you dead, It will make you strong
GDCGCDG
Don’t try to explain it, just nod your head, Breathe in, breathe out, move on.
INST play twice
(G - D - C - G - C - D - G)Chorus 2:
DCG
And it rained, Nothing really new
DCG
And it blew, Seen all that before
DCG
And it poured, The Earth began to strain
DCGA#G
Pontchartrain, Buried the Ninth Ward, To the second floor.
GDCGCDG
According to my watch the time is now, Past is dead and gone
GDCGCDG
Don’t try to shake it just nod your head, Breathe in, breathe out, move on.
GDCG
Don’t try to explain it just bow your head,
CDCG
Breathe in, breathe out, move on.
