G Driving in the fast lane Em counting mile marker signs C The empty seat beside me G keeps you on my mind
G Livin' in the heartache Em was never something I pursued C I can't keep on chasing G what I can't be for you
GEm Oohh skies are black and blue C I'm thinking about you G Here in the calm after the storm
G Tears on the highway Em Water in my eyes C This rain ain't gonna change us G So what's the use to cry
G I could say I'm sorry Em But I don't wanna lie C I just wanna know if staying G Is better than goodbye
GEm Oohh skies are black and blue C I'm thinking about you G Here in the calm after the storm
GEm Oohh after all that we've been through C There ain't nothing new G Here in the calm after the storm
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
GEm Oohh skies are black and blue C I'm thinking about you G Here in the calm after the storm C There ain't nothing new G Here in the calm after the storm
