Intro: E   A   C#m   A 
       E   B   E

       E   B   A 

VERSE
E                                A 
We have kept a light on through the trouble
C#m              B                A 
Treaded water - in a sea of tears
E                                A 
Now I'm shooting arrows across your night sky
C#m              B                A 
Trying to land in your atmosphere

CHORUS
C#m                      A 
If we can make it through this storm
E                        A 
And become who we were before
E                B               A 
Promise me we'll never look back
C#m                      A 
The worst is far behind us now
E                        A 
We'll make it out of here somehow
E                B               C#m 
Meet me in the aftermath
A                B 
Meet me in the aftermath

[Play Intro again: E   A A  C#m   A 
        E   B   A ]

VERSE
E                                A 
There's so much more to life than all of the hours
C#m              B                A 
Moments that just slid beneath our feet
E                                A 
In the times that we put it all on the table
C#m              B                A 
And help feels too far beyond our reach

CHORUS
C#m                      A 
If we can make it through this storm
E                        A 
And become who we were before
E                B                A 
Promise me we'll never look back
C#m                      A 
The worst is far behind us now
E                        A 
We'll make it out of here somehow
E                B                C#m 
Meet me in the aftermath
A                B 
Oh, meet me in the aftermath

*Whole Step up*
*I just move my Capo up a whole step*

[C#m    E] (Play this 4 times)

CHORUS
C#m                       A 
If we can make it through this storm
E                         A 
And become who we were before
E                B                A 
Promise me we'll never look back
C#m                       A 
The worst is far behind us now
E                         A 
We'll make it out of here somehow
E                B                C#m 
Meet me in the aftermath
A                B                C#m 
Oh, meet me in the aftermath
A                B         E 
Meet me in the aftermath
