"After The Storm"
by: Graham Nash

Arrangement by Mick Anderson (micka@jolt.mpx.com.au)

c:3/4 time

[G] [Bm] [Em] [C] [G] [D] [G] [C] [G]

[G]After the clouds disapp[Bm]ear, [C]after the rainbow has g[D]one
I'm l[G]eft with a song in my [Bm]ear, the m[C]elody is lingering [D]on
[Em]How come I have to expl[Bm]ain, m[C]usic is worth all the p[D]ain[G][Gsus][G][D]

[G]After the rain washes d[Bm]own, [C]after the fog burns aw[D]ay
W[G]ill I see the sun coming r[Bm]ound, cl[C]oser and closer each d[D]ay
[Em]How come I have to expl[Bm]ain, pe[C]ople are worth all the p[D]ain
[G]I just want to see the l[Bm]ove in your e[Em]yes

[C]After the st[G]orm has pa[D]ssed you and g[G]one[C][G]
[C] When you're dr[D]eaming of [Bm]how it could be,[C] it doesn't w[D]ork to pret[G]end
[C] Let me t[D]ell you what h[Em]appened to me
[C] Just to get to the e[D]nd, I needed a fr[G]iend [Bm] [Em]

[C]After the rainbow had g[D]one
It's s[G]o sad losing a fr[Bm]iend, but the m[C]emories are lingering [D]on
[Em]How come I have to expl[Bm]ain, ch[C]ildren are worth all the p[D]ain
[G]I just want to see the l[Bm]ove in your e[Em]yes

[C]After the st[G]orm has pa[D]ssed you and g[Em]one [C]
[G]I just want to see the l[Bm]ove in your e[Em]yes
[C]After the st[G]orm has pa[D]ssed you and g[C]one [G]

[Am] Telling this story s[Dm]lowly to[Em]geth[Gm]er
Reading in the d[Bm]ark
The b[Am]ird that you saw [Dm]dying, [Em]we saw f[Gm]lying

L[Em]ife is uncertain, l[Bm]ife is unknown, l[Em]ife is a shot in the d[Bm]ark

H[F#]ere in this room of glass and steel
With the TV and the [D#m]tube I'm watching with my eyes
Th[B]ings are getting s[C#]pacier qu[B]elle surprise[F#]
From the bar the circus calls
Check the smile and crawl the h[D#m]alls it all comes back to me
W[B]ith the life of a r[C#]ock and roll r[B]efug[F#]ee
And it's [D#m]hard, yes it's h[B]ard to underst[C#]and just where you've [D#m]gone
And I kn[B]ow that coming d[C#]own can't be much [D#m]fun any more
And I h[B]ope you find the str[C#]ength to carry [F#]on
When will we ever learn
It's all too much it's such a [D#m]burn when it all goes up in flames
The tr[B]ick is trying to [C#]balance all the pl[B]easure and the p[F#]ains
And it's [D#m]hard, yes it's h[B]ard to underst[C#]and just where you've [D#m]gone
And I kn[B]ow that coming d[C#]own can't be much [D#m]fun any more
Still I h[B]ope you find the str[C#]ength to carry [F#]on
In this world of flesh and bone
Check the girl and wander [D#m]home alone it's all the same
I'm s[B]ick and tired and t[C#]ired and sick of pl[B]aying all these g[F#]ames
And it's [D#m]hard [B] [C#] so [D#m]hard[B][C#]
Glass and s[D#m]teel [B] [C#] glass and s[D#m]teel[B][C#][D#m][B][C#]

Sleep Song (Graham Nash)

C C/B Am7 G C C/B Am7 G

C C/B Am7 G
When you were asleep I was kissing your forehead

C C/B Am7 G
You gave a frown so I kissed you again

C C/B Am7 G
You started waking and put your arms around my waist

C C/B Am7 G C C/B Am7
Just making sure I was there then you drifted away

G C C/B Am7 G
Then you drifted away

C C/B Am7 G
And when I awoke I found out I'd been dreaming

C C/B Am7 G
Some of my bed clothes were still on the floor

C C/B Am7 G
I looked around realised you were leaving me

C C/B Am7 G C C/B Am7
I saw the back of your dress as you slipped through the door

G C C/B Am7 G
As you slipped through the door, na na na na na ...

C C/B Am7 G
Na na na na na ....

C C/B Am7 G
Na na na na na ....

C C/B Am7 G
Na na na na na ....

C C/B Am7 G
Na na na na na ....

C C/B Am7 G
And when I return I will kiss your eyes open

C C/B Am7 G
Take off my clothes and I'll lie by your side

C C/B Am7 G
Then I will wait till the sandman has done with you

C C/B Am7 G C C/B Am7
And as you sleepily rise you'll find I'll be there

G C C/B Am7 G C C/B Am7 G C
You'll find I'll be there na na na

D / Em7 / F#m7 / Em7 /

D / Em7 / F#m7 / Em7 /

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
I've watched you go through changes that no man should face alone

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
Take to heel or tame the horse the choice is still your own

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
But arm yourself against the pain a wounded bird can give

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
And in the end remember it's with you you have to live

D Em7 F#m7 D
And in the end remember it's with you you have to live

D / Em7 / F#m7 / Em7 /

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
Stand your ground I think you've got the guts it takes to win

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
But you must learn to turn the key before she'll let you in

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
And understand the problems of the girl you want so near

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
Or you'll wear the coat of questions till the answer hat is here

D Em7 F#m7 D
You'll wear the coat of questions till the answer hat is here

D / Em7 / F#m7 / Em7 /

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
Serenade your angel with a love song from your eyes

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
Grow a little taller even though your age defies

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
Feel a little smaller and in stature you will rise

D Em7 F#m7 Em7
A hobo or a poet must kill dragons for a bride

D Em7 F#m7 D
And humble pie is always hard to swallow with your pride

D / Em7 / F#m7 / Em7 / D

"Another Sleep Song"

C#m B A
All I need is someone to awaken me

B C#m
Much of me has gone to sleep and I'm afraid to wake up

C#m B A
Shake me by the shoulder if I'm lying with you now

B
When I talk about the time I sleep away

E G#m C#m / / / B / A / B / / /
When it's hard to face the day

C#m B A
When I think of all the love that's taken me

B C#m
How much do I get to keep and how much should I give up

C#m B A
Shake me by the shoulders if I'm lying to you now

B E
I'm listening to the lies inside my head

G#m C#m / / / B / A / B / / /
Who can hurt you in your bed

G#m A
Fear of other people is a thing I hate

G#m A
I travel in a bubble and I can't relate

G#m A
Something is happening to my head

G#m A C#m
I don't want to hurt you but I never heard a word you said

C#m B A
Has this empty hollow heart forsaken me

B C#m
I wonder if I'll ever get to feel like I did, before I grew up

C#m B A
Shake me by the shoulders if I'm lying with you now

B
There is no time to waste another day

E G#m C#m / / / B / A / B / / /
Cos we watch them fly away
