30 [C] miles on the Gulf Stream [D] I hear the [A] south wind moan
The bridge is [C] getting lower [D] The shrimp [A] boat's coming home
The old [C] man down in the corner [D] Slowly [A] turns his head
Takes [C] a sip from his whiskey [D] bottle And this [A] is what he said
I was born in [C] the rain on a bouncer [D] train Underneath the [A] Louisiana moon
I don't mind the [C] strain of a hurricane [D] They come [E] around every June
[A] The high black [C] water, a devil's daughter [D] She's hot, she's [A] cold, and she's mean
But nobody [G] taught her it takes a lot [D] of water To wash away [A] New Orleans
A man came [C] down from Chicago [D] He's gonna set that [A] levee right
He said, it needs [C] to be at least three feet [D] higher It won't make it [A] through the night
But the old man [C] down in the corner [D] He said, don't you listen to that [A] boy
The water'll be [C] down by the morning [D] And he'll be back [A] to Illinois
I was born in [C] the rain on a bouncer [D] train Underneath the [A] Louisiana moon
I don't mind the [C] strain of a hurricane [D] They come around [E] every June

The bridge is [C] getting lower [D] The shrimp boat's [A] coming home

To learn The Band Of Heathens - Hurricane chords, your first step should be understanding these chords - C, D, A and C in sequence. A strategic approach would be to train at 32 BPM initially, and then accelerate to the song's tempo of 65. Given the song's key of A Minor, adjust the capo to align with your vocal range and chord preference.
