G


[Verse]

G
Driving in a fast lane
         Em
Counting mile marker signs
C
The empty seat beside me
G
Keeps you on my mind
G
Living in a heartache
          Em
Was never something I pursued
C
I can't keep on chasing
G
What I can be for you


[Chorus]

G                         Em
Ooooh skies are black and blue
           C
Thinking about you
           G
Here in the calm after the storm


[Verse]

G
Tears on a highway
Em
Water in my eyes
    C
This rain ain't gonna change us
     G
So what's the use to cry
G
I can say I'm sorry
    Em
But I don't wanna lie
      C
I just wanna know if staying
    G
Is better than goodbye


[Chorus]

G                         Em
Ooooh skies are black and blue
           C
Thinking about you
           G
Here in the calm after the storm
G                      Em
Ooooh after all that we've been through
               C
There ain't nothin' new
           G
Here in the calm after the storm


[Solo]

G Em C G


[Bridge]

G
Maybe I can find you
Em 
Down this broken line
C 
Maybe you can find me
G 
I guess we'll know in time


[Chorus]

G                         Em
Ooooh skies are black and blue
           C
Thinking about you
           G
Here in the calm after the storm
                C
There ain't nothin new
           G
Here in the calm after the storm
