After The Storm

[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]
G    Am G  D         G
 And after the storm,
  G       Am  G  D         G
I run and run as the rains come
    Bm     Am C Em     D
And I look u_p, I look up,
Em    D                G
On my knees and out of luck,
Em     D
I look up.

[Verse 2]
G         Am G   D        G
Night has always pushed up day
    G         Am   G  D     G
You must know life to see decay
    Bm      Am C Em      D
But I won't rot, I won't rot
Em       D                 G
Not this mind and not this heart,
Em      D
I won't rot.
    G Am   G   D      Em
And I took you by the hand

[Pre-Chorus]
    C      G
And we stood tall,
    G Am G     D     Em
And remembered our own land,
     C     G
What we lived for.

[Chorus]
    C                 Em
And there will come a time,
            G
you 'll see , with no more tears.
    C             Em            G
And love will not break your heart,
but dismiss your fears.
    C         Em          G
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
     C             Em           G
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.

[Bridge]
G Am G D G G Am G D G

[Verse 3]
    G     Am    G  D     G
And now I cling to what I knew
  G    Am  G  D       G
I saw exactly what was true
    Bm    Am C         Em    D
But oh no more. That's why I hold,
       Em    D               G
That's why I hold with all I have.
       Em    D
That's why I hold.

[Pre-Chorus]
G   Am G     D    Em       C    G
And I  won't die alone and be left there.
     G Am    G    D       Em
Well I guess I'll just go home,
   C      G
oh God knows where.
  G     Am    G  D       Em       C     G
Because death is just so full and man so small.
     G   Am     G  D        Em       C        G
Well I'm scared of what's behind and what's before.

[Chorus]
    C                 Em
And there will come a time,
            G
you 'll see , with no more tears.
    C             Em            G
And love will not break your heart,
but dismiss your fears.
    C         Em          G
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
     C             Em           G
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.
    C                 Em
And there will come a time,
            G
you 'll see , with no more tears.
    C             Em            G
And love will not break your heart,
but dismiss your fears.
    C         Em          G
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
     C             Em           G
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.
