 F#                                                             Ebm 
I can hear planes flyin' over my head
                                             B                     Db 
Just hours before you occupied my bed
 Ebm                                                       Abm 
In our darkness we conjured up sunlight
 Ebm                                                   Abm                             Db 
In our haste, our need, our thirst we lost our sight
 Ebm                                                                                   B 
But I was inspired tracing the lines on your face
               Ebm                                                               Db 
To the poetry the first time I heard your name
               Ebm                                       Db                             Abm 
When I trip from your lips my heart was like a kick-drum
               Ebm                                                   Db                         Ebm 
And it silenced the guilt, I wasn't raised to hurt anyone
 Ebm 
Uh oh, does he know
                                                       Db 
That I'm lyin' in the afterglow
                                                       B 
That I'm lyin' but I can't go, can't say no
 B                                     Db 
Make him think he's crazy
                                       Ebm 
While his paranoia grows
 Ebm                               Db 
What he should be asking
                                             B 
Is where did our love go
                                       Db 
Then I wouldn't be baskin'
                                             Ebm 
In another man's afterglow
 Ebm 
Where did the beat go?
 Db 
Where is the beat?
 Ebm 
Where did the beat go?
 F#                                                   Ebm 
So how do I justify to the judge and the jury
                                     B                                         Db 
The voices in my head that caused this fury
 Ebm                                                                 Abm 
Never had to play with matches to start a fire
 Ebm                                               Abm                                   Db 
But it got so cold and I thought I'd forgotten desire
                         Ebm                                       B 
I was your concubine and then your Madonna
                             Ebm                                                       Db 
You couldn't see anything beyond your baby's mama
           Ebm                         Db                 Abm 
How long is lonely supposed to last?
               Ebm                   Db                                   Ebm 
I was naked and waiting for you to come back
 Ebm 
Uh oh, does he know
                                                       Db 
That I'm lyin' in the afterglow

 Ebm 
Where did the beat go?
In another man's afterglow...
 Ebm                                                                                       Db 
There's a cause and effect although I took the steps
 Abm                                                             B 
I dove off the bridge cause I had nothing left
 Ebm                                     Db 
All I ever wanted was you
 Ebm                                     Db 
And in the absence of you
 B  Db     Ebm 
I fell through
 Ebm 
Uh oh, does he know
