Afterlife

E B F# G#m


[Verse 1]

E    B     F#                   
Afterlife, oh my God, what an 
    G#m
awful word
E             B                  
After all the breath and the dirt
         F#               G#m
 and the fires are burnt
E                  B     F#     
And after all this time, and 
                      G#m
after all the ambulances go
E                  B             
And after all the hangers-on are 
                       F#
done hanging on to the dead light
        G#m
Of the afterglow

G#m
I've gotta know…


[Chorus]

F#             E
Can we work it out?
                 G#m               
If we scream and shout 'till we 
     B      F#
work it out
                     E
Can we just work it out?
            G#m                  
Scream and shout 'till we work it 
    B
out?
                   E               
'Till we work it out, 'till we work
     G#m
 it out
                 F#                
'Till we work it out, 'till we work
      E
 it out


[Verse 2]
(same chords)

Afterlife, I think I saw what 
happens next
Oh it was just a glimpse of you, 
like looking through a window
Or a shallow sea
Could you see me?
And after all this time
It's like nothing else we used to 
know
And after all the hangers-on are 
done hanging on to the dead light
Of the afterglow
I've gotta know…


[Chorus]

Continues after the ad
F#              E
Can we work it out?
                  G#m              
Let's scream and shout 'till we 
      B
work it out
F#                    E
Can we just work it out?
            G#m                  
Scream and shout 'till we work it 
    B
out?


[Bridge]

But you say
F#  E
Oh
               G#m
When love is gone
               B
Where does it go?

And you say
F#  E
Oh
              G#m
When love is gone
               B
Where does it go?
                 E
And where do we go?
             G#m
Where do we go?
             F#
Where do we go?
             E
Where do we go?


[Verse 3]
(same chords as above)

And after this
Can it last another night?
After all the bad advice
Had nothing at all to do with life
I've gotta know


[Chorus]

F#              E
Can we work it out?
                  G#m              
Let's scream and shout 'till we 
      B
work it out
F#                    E
Can we just work it out?
            G#m                  
Scream and shout 'till we work it 
    B
out?


[Bridge]

But you say
F#  E
Oh
               G#m
When love is gone
               B
Where does it go?

And you say
F#  E
Oh
              G#m
When love is gone
               B
Where does it go?

F#  E
Oh
              G#m
When love is gone
              B
Where did it go?

F#  E
Oh
              G#m
When love is gone
              B
Where did it go?
                 F#   E
And where do we go?

It's just an afterlife
