[Intro] x4
E
C A
[Verse 1]
Morning after sEnowstorm
Stand in the silence
Almost feel reCborn all alone on the Astreet
It's a certain sort of sEtillness when the quiet surrounds you
The Conly sound your shovel on Aconcrete
I remember F#those piles from the snAow plows always seemed much F#bigger back when EI was a Akid
Pushed all of the F#snow to the end of the Adriveway
I was the F#only person Eup in the Aneighborhood
[Verse 2]
Morning after sEnowstorm
I turned the igCnition and I started my Acar
Morning after sEnowstorm
I scraped off my Cwindshield with the edge of a Acredit card
I remember F#mthat drive into Awork
Still can hear the F#mvoice coming Eover the Aradio
Listen to our F#mexperts give the Abest tips for the F#mnext time you eEntertain Adinner guests
[Chorus 1]
I thought of the daBmy in a tAie in the kitchen I Bmsat and I wAatched you put Gmake-up on
Thought of the daBmy in the bAasement when I played Ghouse
I felt ashBmamed that I'd sAtayed in my head in the Bmsame place Afor so Glong
Because I was afraid to Gchange
But that's Anot an excuse to sGtay
[Verse 3]
Morning after Dsnowstorm
I climbed up on the sEnowbank and I stared at the Bmneighborhood
Morning after Dsnowstorm
I think I finally understEood what they meant when they Bmsaid there's a calm after the F#mstorm
[Bridge]
   ESaw my grandpa at his workbench building grandma's boF#mokshelf
   GWatched a woman walk her trash out to the street
   F#Father alone on the highwayE  
   I heard the salt trucks and neighbors off to F#mwork
   Saw my mother
   Saw how history Gloops around all of these moments and then I saw yBmou
[Chorus 2]
In a Adress there with your Bmeyes open Awide to put Gmake-up on
Thought of the dBmay in the Abasement that I played Ghouse
And I felt ashBmamed I'd ignAored all the hands that exBmtended befAore and arGound me
Because I was afraid to Gchange
But that's nAot an excuse to Gstay
It's nAot an excuse

[Intro] x4

C A

[Verse 1]

Morning after snowstorm

Stand in the silence

C A

Almost feel reborn all alone on the street

It's a certain sort of stillness when the quiet surrounds you

C A

The only sound your shovel on concrete

F# A F# E A

I remember those piles from the snow plows always seemed much bigger back when I was a kid

F# A

Pushed all of the snow to the end of the driveway

F# E A

I was the only person up in the neighborhood

[Verse 2]

Morning after snowstorm

C A

I turned the ignition and I started my car

Morning after snowstorm

C A

I scraped off my windshield with the edge of a credit card

F#m A

I remember that drive into work

F#m E A

Still can hear the voice coming over the radio

F#m A F#m E A

Listen to our experts give the best tips for the next time you entertain dinner guests

[Chorus 1]

Bm A Bm A G

I thought of the day in a tie in the kitchen I sat and I watched you put make-up on

Bm A G

Thought of the day in the basement when I played house

Bm A Bm A G

I felt ashamed that I'd stayed in my head in the same place for so long

Because I was afraid to change

A G

But that's not an excuse to stay

[Verse 3]

Morning after snowstorm

E Bm

I climbed up on the snowbank and I stared at the neighborhood

Morning after snowstorm

E Bm F#m

I think I finally understood what they meant when they said there's a calm after the storm

[Bridge]

Saw my grandpa at his workbench building grandma's bookshelf

Watched a woman walk her trash out to the street

Father alone on the highway

I heard the salt trucks and neighbors off to work

Saw my mother

G Bm

Saw how history loops around all of these moments and then I saw you

[Chorus 2]

A Bm A G

In a dress there with your eyes open wide to put make-up on

Bm A G

Thought of the day in the basement that I played house

Bm A Bm A G

And I felt ashamed I'd ignored all the hands that extended before and around me

Because I was afraid to change

A G

But that's not an excuse to stay

It's not an excuse
