Broadway - Hamilton - Hurricane Chords

Dm  C  G   x2

(HAMILTON)
Dm
In the eye of a hurricane
      C   G
There is quiet
            Dm
For just a moment
C G
A yellow sky

Dm
When I was seventeen a hurricane
C G
Destroyed my town
          Dm
I didn't drown
        C  G
I couldn't seem to die

                F
I wrote my way out
                 Fsus4                Dm
Wrote everything down far as I could see
            F
I wrote my way out
                    Fsus4          F     Csus4  C
I looked up and the town had its eyes on me

                     Dm
They passed a plate around
        C/E
Total strangers
          Dm/F            Fsus2  G
Moved to kindness by my story
        Dm                      F
Raised enough for me to book passage on a
               C             
Ship that was New York bound?

D5                 F5
I wrote my way out of hell
           G5
I wrote my way to revolution
A5                      C5          D5
I was louder than the crack in the bell
               F5                     G5
I wrote Eliza love letters until she fell
         A5                           C5        D5
I wrote about the Constitution and defended it well
                     F5           G5
And in the face of ignorance and resistance
                A5          C5       D5
I wrote financial systems into existence
    F
And when my prayers to God were met with indifference
   G
I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance

Dm 
In the eye of a hurricane
      C   G
There is quiet
           Dm 
For just a moment
C G
A yellow sky

Dm 
I was twelve when my mother died
     C  G
She was holding me
                          Dm
We were sick and she was holding me
        C  G
I couldn't seem to die

Dm/C
Overwhelm them 
with honesty

Dm/A                                          Dm/G
This is the eye of the hurricane, this is the only

Way I can protect my legacy?

Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait?
