Nickelback - After The Rain

[Intro]
G#m  C#m


[Verse 1]
G#m
all your life has been rambling, scurrying
G#m
Take your time rather than hurry
C#m
Never too late to write the rest of your story
C#m
Remember to breathe or else you're gonna be sorry

G#m
Life's no race, it's a companion
G#m
always face with reckless abandonment
C#m
a ticket to life as the mother once told me
C#m
Stick with your pride and you're gonna be lonely


[chorus 1]
B           F#                    G#m
  everybody says that life takes patience
    E                B
but nobody wants to wait
          F#              G#m
everybody says we need salvation
    E                   B
but nobody wants to be saved
         F#         G#m          E               B
The light in the tunnel is just another runaway train
              F#        G#m         E                       B
The blue skies we wait on are gonna have to come after the rain


[Verse 2]
G#m
Spend your days happy and grateful
G#m
avoid the taste of wanting and wasteful
C#m
every good thing will come in moderation
C#m
envy and greed will only lead to frustration

G#m
choose your friends, carefree and kindly
G#m
choose your words, careful and wisely
C#m
always be there to lend a comforting shoulder
C#m
One will be there to share and be when you're older (be when you're older}


[chorus 2]
B           F#                    G#m
  everybody says that life takes patience
    E                B
but nobody wants to wait
          F#              G#m
everybody says we need salvation
    E                   B
but nobody wants to be saved
         F#         G#m          E               B
The light in the tunnel is just another runaway train
              F#        G#m         E                       B
The blue skies we wait on are gonna have to come after the rain


[bridge]
B               F#
Old mistakes committed upon us
G#m           E
always take a toll on the conscience
B                 F#
every regret is a gift that you live with
G#m               E
Never forget to remember forgiveness


[chorus 3]
B           F#                    G#m
  everybody says that life takes patience
    E                B
but nobody wants to wait
          F#              G#m
everybody says we need salvation
    E                   B
but nobody wants to be saved
         F#         G#m          E               B
The light in the tunnel is just another runaway train
              F#        G#m         E                      B     D      A
The blue skies we wait on are gonna have to come after the ra-ai-ai-ai-ain


[Outro]
      E                      B     D      A
gonna have to come after the ra-ai-ai-ai-ain
      E                      B     D      A
gonna have to come after the ra-ai-ai-ai-ain
      E                      B     D     A
---------------------------  Ra-ai-ai-ai-ain
      E                      B
gonna have to come after the rain
