Intro: E
E
I don't recall what I was drinking
A E
But after the third one I was gone
Seventeen and not really thinking
A E
Just wanted something really strong
G#m A
Room spinning round faster and faster
G#m A B
Drowning in the midnight laughter
A B
But nothing hits, nothing hurts
E
Like the morning after
E
I gave in to him completely
A E
We made plans and we made love
But this world can cut a heart so deeply
A E
And we both gave 'til we both gave up
G#m A
And that night I lost everything that mattered
G#m A B
And I thought I couldn't get any sadder
A B
But nothing hits, nothing hurts
E
Like the morning after
G#m A G#m A B
C#m
The morning after the storm
B
The morning after all the rain
E
When you wake up and you realise
B
That you'll never be the same
E
Oh I don't care what I'm drinking
A E
Just give me something real strong
G#m A
Room spinning round faster and faster
G#m A B
Drowning in the midnight laughter
A B
But nothing hits, nothing hurts
A B
Oh nothing hits, nothing hurts
E
Like the morning after
