Calm after the storm
G ~
G Em
1. Driving in a fast lane, counting mile marker signs,
C G
the
empty seat beside me keeps you on my mind.
G Em
Living in a
heartache was never something I pursued,
C G
I can't keep on chasing what I
can be for you.
G Em
Ooh, skies are black and blue,
C G
thinking about you here in the calm
after the storm.
G Em
2. Tears on a highway, water in my eyes
C G
this
rain ain't gonna change us,
so what's the use to cry.
G Em
I can say I'm sorry, but I
don't wanna lie,
C G
I just wanna
know if staying is better than goodbye.
G Em
Ooh, skies are black and blue,
C G
thinking about you here in the calm
after the storm.
G Em
Ooh, after all that we've been through
C G
there ain't
nothin' new here in the calm after the storm.
+ G - Em - C - G
G Em
+ Maybe I can find you down
this broken line,
C G -
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
maybe
you can find me, I guess we'll know in time. - - -
G Em
Ooh, skies are black and blue,
C G
thinking about you here in the calm
after the storm.
C G
There ain't nothin
new, here in the calm after the storm.
