R.e.m - Aftermath

F                Am
   Now the radio stutters. snaps to life.
         Dm   C         A#
   Some sour song that sets it right.
             F      A#
   And when London falls
         F       A#
 /|
   He'd like to call
/ |
             F
  |
   But the stars collide.

Am          Dm    C       A#
   They're beautiful and much maligned.
        F   A#              F       A#
   In a universe where you see the worst,
            C
   And it's up to you to fix it.

C              A#       F
   Now you've worked it out
            C
   And you see it all

               A#       F                                                      |

   And you've worked it out

   And you see it all                                                          |

            A#       F
   And you want to shout
            C                      A# Am F D
   How you see it all

It's easy to dismiss the 'what's it all about' crowd.
There is no doubt. it's this, here, now.
And you close your eyes.
 /|
He's not coming back.
/ |
So you work it out, overfeed the cat.
  |
And the plants are dry and they need to drink.
__|
So you do your best. and you flood the sink.
Sit down in the kitchen and cry.

Now you've worked it out
__
And you see it all                                                             |
  |
And you've worked it out
 /
And you see it all
/
And you want to shout                                                          |

Gm A#
Am F

Now the universe left you for a runners lap.
It feels like home when it comes crashing back.
And it makes you laugh
And it makes you cry,
 /|
When London falls
/ |
And you're still alive.
  |
The radio stutters,
__|
It makes you laugh
And the aftermath,
Open up your eyes.
You're so alive.

Now you've worked it out
And you see it all
And you've worked it out
__
And you see it all                                                             |
  |
And you want to shout
 /
How you see it all
/
How you've worked it out                                                       |
__|
And you see it all
How you've worked it out
And you see it all

End on F
