Afterlife - Avenged Sevenfold

[Verse 1]

     Dm                                                                               F 
Like walking into a dream, so unlike what you've seen
Dm                                                                          F 
So unsure but it seems, ’cause we’ve been waiting for you
Dm                                                                             F 
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste
       Dm                                                                                        F 
Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway

Dm                     C       Dm                                C 
I see a distant light, but girl this can't be right
Dm                                      C                                  Bb
Such a surreal place to see so how did this come to be
     A 
Arrived too early

[Pre-chorus 1]

Dm               F                         Bb
And when I think of all the places I just don't belong
Dm                  F                              Bb                    C                F
I've come to grips with life and realize this is going too far

[Chorus]

F                  C                                           Dm
I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear
Bb                   F
Escape from this afterlife
F                    C                                     Dm
’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on
Bb
Far away from here

[Verse 2]

Dm                                                 F
A place of hope and no pain, perfect skies with no rain
Dm                                                   F
Can leave this place but refrain, ’cause we've been waiting for you
Dm                                               F
Fallen into this place, just giving you a small taste
Dm                                                        F
Of your afterlife here so stay, you'll be back here soon anyway

Dm                         C
This peace on earth's not right (with my back against the wall)
Dm                  C
No pain or sign of time (I’m much too young to fall)
Dm                           C                     Bb
So out of place don't wanna stay, I feel wrong and that's my sign
     A
I've made up my mind

[Pre-chorus 2]

Dm           F                Bb
Give me your hand but realize I just wanna say goodbye
Dm           F             Bb              C
Please understand I have to leave and carry on my own life

[Chorus]

F          C                       Dm
I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear
    Bb              F
escape from this afterlife
     C                     Dm
’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on,
Bb
far away from here

F              C                         Dm
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
      Bb             F                       C
This place full of peace and light, and I’d hope you might
Dm          Bb                    Dm
Take me back inside when the time is right

[Solo]


[Chorus]

F          C                       Dm
I don't belong here, we gotta move on dear
    Bb             F
escape from this afterlife
     C                     Dm
’Cause this time I'm right to move on and on,
Bb
far away from here

F              C                         Dm
Got nothing against you and surely I'll miss you
      Bb             F                       C
This place full of peace and light, and I’d hope you might
Dm          Bb                    Dm
Take me back inside when the time is right
