Jesse Malin - Aftermath

Intro:

G Em G C

Verse:
G   D          Em
The city was changing
G        D            C
 The cigarette hit the spot
G     D         Em
Oh a simple distraction
G       D             C
From to have and have not
G       D          Em
And the radio went silent
G           D          C
And all our heroes had died
G           D           Em
Now you can buy revolution
G      D        C
In any color or size

Chorus:
G             D
Standing on a corner
Em
Watching people walk on
Am                    D
Thinking about a photograph
G           D
How so many people
G        Em
Choose a lesser evil
Am              D
Living in the aftermath

Verse:
G   D         Em
She never got famous
G           D           C
She was the star in my life
G       D            Em
Till we drifted like runoff
G      D            C
Or two ships in the night

Chorus:
G             D
Standing on a corner
Em
Watching people walk on
Am                    D
Thinking about a photograph
G           D
How so many people
G        Em
Choose a lesser evil
Am                 D
Living in the aftermath

Bridge:
            G    D    Em           G    D    Em
It's such a long hard road, such a long hard road
       C            D
To hold on, and move on
Em           G         Em        G
I hope she's happy
I hope she's free
Em         G                   D
Somehow we choose our own destiny

Solo:
G  D  G  Em  Am  D
G  D  G  Em  Am  D

Verse:
G        D         Em
From the eye of destruction
G      D         C
To the valley of tears
G         D            Em
Before it all went to voice mail
G      D          C
And we rang in the year
G       D         Em
And the midnight martyrs
G          D           C
They still hang on the cross
G       D          Em
You can die in the gutter baby
G           D             C
Or learn to live with the loss

Chorus:
G             D
Standing on a corner
Em
Watching people walk on
Am                    D
Thinking about a photograph
G           D
How so many people
G        Em
Choose a lesser evil
Am              D
Living in the aftermath

Chorus:
G             D
Standing on a corner
Em
Everybody’s talkin
Am                       D
Remember when we used to laugh
G           D
How so many people
G        Em
Choose a lesser evil
Am                   D
Never giving peace a chance

Outro:
            G    D    Em           G    D    Em
It's such a long hard road, such a long hard road
       C            D
To hold on and move on
       G    D    Em           G    D    Em
Down a long hard road, such a long hard road
       C            D      G   D   Em
To hold on and move on
       C            D           G
To hold on and hold on til it’s gone
