Verse 1
G#m
Sandy has seen a tornado more times than she's seen
the grateful dead...
She lives in oklahoma,
F#
G#m
Where the storms come prairie fed,
And the numbers keep on mounting,
It's been twenty times
and counting
That she's been in the path of
Splintered trees and twisted lead
That connect the dots
between trailer parks
With destruction that's painted
blood red
Verse 2
G#m
And now she wants to chase them, With me, in my honda
civic,
"we'll keep a safe distance."
I say, "give me an instance
Where 'safety' is mileage specific..."
Okemah is where the last one touched down,
(that's woody guthrie's old home town) and,
(as if it would turn me around)
She starts singing "this land is
your land"
I say, "ok,
Verse 3
you win... terrific."
G#m
Now, I've never
been to see something
That I wished wasn't even there,
Though I've heard that said of dentists,
And with in'laws, and from
victims of the electric chair
But there I was, heading east on 44,
Getting pelted by hailstones
the size of barn doors
So, of course,
none of them were missing.
It was as if God was keeping score,
F#
And the heavens were
thundering their approval...
G#m
Thats when I suggested
our hasty removal
D#
G#m
Just a mile
Verse 4
down the road, this
D#
rain of hailstones ceased
G#m
And a vaacuum of silence brought
a turbulent peace...
The clouds started dancing, dressed
G#m
And enveloped the sky in a jungle
party theme- -
There they gave birth
to a barbed- wire wind
Sandy was frozen,
her face had a maniacal grin,
A funnel cloud came roaring, cast
down from the sky
Like the knife of the devil
but twenty stories high!
Verse 5
Sandy broke from the car in a mad, desperation run
G#m
To touch her sole fixation,
this wheel where death was spun,
F#
And I could do but nothing,
G#m
F#
my heart came so undone
G#m
For the host of twenty tornadoes,
Who died with twenty- one...
