After You
by Berkeley Social Scene

The wind and the sea
The storm and the shore
We stood in the tempest
Grasping for safety

Before you, an ocean of love
After you, an ocean of blood
The waves will crash over me
but I’m still standing
After you

The salt in my eyes
The stinging of tears
The words on your lips
Composed disregard

Before you, an ocean of love
After you, an ocean of blood
The waves will crash over me
but I’m still standing
After you

Beside you
Inside you
Outside you
Without you

(guitar solo)

A calm in the storm
Brings false relief
Stand on an island
Thinking the worst is over now

Before you, an ocean of love
After you, an ocean of blood
The waves will crash over me
but I’m still standing
After you

Before you, an ocean of love
(Beside you)
After you, an ocean of blood
(Inside you)
The waves will crash over me
(Outside you)
but I’m still standing
(Without you I cannot figure out)
After you
(What to do after you)

(guitar counter-melody)

Before you, an ocean of love
After you, an ocean of blood
The waves will crash over me
but I’m still standing
After you

I came in to the session with a 5/4 take five kinda thing. Sam and Ken weren’t feeling it. Half of the chords survived, and we changed to 6/8. I love how dynamic we got on this song. There’s a nice build of energy to this song. The guitar was a 2nd take. It’s a very solo-able kind of pattern. I think Sam did a great job on the vocals. I provided the counter melody vocals, and then the dueling guitar counter melodies. Ken’s drums are perfect and rockin!
