G               D
 She could have had them all
C             D        Em
 Wasn't I too tame for her?
      G
That meteor
    C                 D
But I was the one she came for
C         Bm
I was all smoke and haze
C        D          Em
And then aflame for her
C
That hurricane
                   Bm
Hurricane when she came for me
C                    G
 Hurricane when she came



She had heart

She had soul

And things they don't have a name for

I had to ask myself

Was I game for her

I thought that I was through

She thought that wasn't true

Oh she had things to do

I was the one she came for

Hurricane when she came



She saw me on the fly

She knew me with one eye

I walked her around the block and

Nothin' been the same for me

I thought I'd seen a lot

She proved that I had not

And I needed what she brought

And it was a hurricane when she came for me

A hurricane when she came


I was the one she came for

Hurricane when she came

 Hurricane when she

 Hurricane when she

 Hurricane when she came for me

 I was the one she

I was the one she

 I was the one she came for

Lyrics

She could have had them all
Wasn't I too tame for her?
That meteor
But I was the one she came for
I was all smoke and haze
And then aflame for her
That hurricane
Hurricane when she came for me
Hurricane when she came

She had heart
She had soul
And things they don't have a name for
I had to ask myself
Was I game for her
I thought that I was through
She thought that wasn't true
Oh she had things to do
I was the one she came for
Hurricane when she came

She saw me on the fly
She knew me with one eye
I walked her around the block and
Nothin' been the same for me
I thought I'd seen a lot
She proved that I had not
And I needed what she brought
And it was a hurricane when she came for me
A hurricane when she came

I was the one she came for
Hurricane when she came
Hurricane when she
Hurricane when she
Hurricane when she came for me
I was the one she
I was the one she
I was the one she came for

Lyrics

[You don't have to shhh it cause it ain't a concert
That's an important thing
I appreciate the sentiment
But since me and Tommy play quiet
And I just got acoustic guitar
You used to think of this as a concert
No, it's still supposed to be fun
And people can make noise and do stuff
Okay, I have spoken

??? Cold and piled here
The guitar ???
It's not its fault
It's being a little temperamental
But I don't blame it
I would be too if I were it]

She could have had them all
I thought if I said I would be too tame for her?

She could have had them all
Wasn't I too tame for her?
That meteor
But I was the one she came for

I first was smoke and haze
And finally aflame for her
That hurricane
It was a hurricane when she came for me

She had heart
She had soul
And things they haven't found a name for
I had to ask myself
If I was I game for her

I had thought that I was through
She thought that wasn't true
She had more things to do

It was a hurricane when she came for

[Soft guitar solo]

She saw me on the fly
She knew me with one eye
I walked her around the block and
Nothin' been the same for me

I thought I'd seen a lot
She showed me that I had not
And I wanted what she brought
It was a hurricane when she came for
A hurricane when she came

Hurricane when she
Hurricane when she
Hurricane when she came for me

I was the one she
I was the one she
I was the one she came for

Lyrics

She could have had them all
Wasn't I too tame for her?
That meteor
But I was the one she came for
I was all smoke and haze
And then aflame for her
That hurricane
She was a hurricane when she came for me

She had heart
She had soul
Things they don't have a name for
I had to ask myself
Was I game for her
I thought that I was through
She thought that wasn't true
She had things to do
It was a hurricane when she came for me
A hurricane when she came

She saw me on the fly
She knew me with one eye
I walked her around the block and
Nothin' been the same for me
I thought I'd seen a lot
She's shown I have not
And I wanted what she brought
It was a hurricane when she came for me
A hurricane when she came

Hurricane when she
Hurricane when she
Hurricane when she came for me

I was the one she
I was the one she
I was the one she came for

Lyrics

[You see now I thought I was too old for her
???
I said look, don't you think I might be a little too old for you?
??? Than any person I met
Ok, then, I was just checking]

She could have had them all
Wasn't I too tame for her?

[[Pause for tuning]]

She could have had them all
Wasn't I too tame for her?
That meteor
But I was the one she came for
And I first was smoke and haze
Finally aflame for her
That hurricane
She was a hurricane when she came for me
It was a hurricane when she came

It was a hurricane when she came

She had heart
She had soul
And things they haven't found a name for
I had to ask myself
Was I game for her
I thought that I was through
She thought that wasn't true
She thought we had things to do
It was a hurricane when she came for me
Hurricane when she
Hurricane when she
Hurricane when she came
For me

And I was the one
I was the one
I was the one she came
For

She saw me on the fly
She knew me with one eye
I walked her around the block and
Nothin' been the same for me
I thought that I'd seen a lot
She showed that I had not
And I needed what she got
It was a hurricane when she came for me

Lyrics

She could have had them all
Wasn't I too tame for her?
That meteor
But I was the one she came for
I first was smoke and haze
And then finally aflame for her
That hurricane
It was a hurricane when she came for me

[Hi everybody, Jonathan Richman on guitar, Tommy Larkins on drums]

She had heart
She had soul
And things I haven't found a name for
I had to ask myself
Was I game for her
I thought that I was through
She thought that wasn't true
Well she thought that we had things to do together
And it was a hurricane when she came for me

She saw me on the fly
She knew me with one eye
I walked her around the block and
Nothin' been the same for me
I thought that I was through
And I thought that I'd seen a lot
But she showed me that I had not
And it was a hurricane when she came for me

Hurricane when she
Hurricane when she
Hurricane when she came for me

I was the one
I was the one
I was the one she came for
