Verse 1 :
Bm D/A Bm D/A ( Single D and C# Note )
She sits among the pieces of broken glass and photographs
Bm D/A G F#
Reluctantly releases the last of what was her past
Bm D/A Bm D/A
It struck without a warning or did she just ignore the signs
Bm D/A G F#
In those dark clouds forming behind her silver lines
Refrain :
G A F# Bm
And the door it slammed like thunder, and the tears they fell like rain
A G A F# Bm
And the warnings from her family whirl like a hurricane
A G A F# Bm
Oh she's drowning in emotions and she cannot reach the shore
A G F#
She's alive but can she survive the Storm
Fill : | Bm - - - | D/A - - - | Bm - - - | D/A - - - | Strum the last chord
Verse 2 :
Bm D/A Bm D/A
A broken jewel box dancer lies in pieces down the hall
Bm D/A G F#
She's finding out the answers don't change nothing at all
Bm D/A Bm D/A
It's time that she stopped searching for who's to blame or what went wrong
Bm D/A G F#
The only thing for certain is he's gone, she's got to move on
Refrain :
G A F# Bm
Then the door was slammed like thunder, and the tears they fall like rain
A G A F# Bm

Oh she's drowning in emotions but she cannot reach the shore

She's alive but can she survive the Storm

Bridge :
D A A/C#
Someday days just roll on by without a gray cloud in the
Bm Bm/A G A ( Bm A/C# )
sky, she keeps telling herself "I will make it on my own" and her
D A A/C#
Friend's they've all gone back to their lives thinking she will be all
Bm Bm/A G F#
right as she races through the night to make it home
Refrain :
G A F# Bm
And the door it slamms like thunder, and the tears they fall like rain
A G A F# Bm
And the warnings from her family whirl like a hurricane
A G A F# Bm
Oh she's drowning in emotions but she cannot reach the shore
A G F#
She's alive but can she survive
