CHORUS:
G C G
After the hurricane
Em C D G
After the wind and rain
G C Em
When we lost everything
C D G D G
After the hurricane
C G Em G
It was not the drivin' rain
C D C
That let our love go down the drain
G Em G
It was not the howlin' wind
C D G
That blew away the hopes I pinned
CHORUS
INTRO
We were sheltered from the storm
In what we thought was safe and warm
We survived the risin' tide
But there's no place that we could hide
CHORUS
SOLO
Things were scattered, things got tossed
But that was not what we had lost
It's a way of markin' time
To fit the reason to the rhyme
CHORUS (2x)
INTRO
