AFTER THE APOCALYPSE
BY DAVID SNYDER


Well,

I think I am back now. Sorry I was away so long. I went into my room to practice my guitar and I forgot to come out.

Hope everybody is great and hanging in there. My studio is booted back up.

Sorry but I still can’t do anything but rock and roll. Hope that is ok.

If you were following me on my old Soundcloud, you have to follow me here because I ran out of space and had to start a new channel.

AFTER THE APOCALYPSE
BY DAVID SNYDER

V1

THERE’LL BE A DAY AND A DON’T KNOW WHEN
WE’LL REACH THE PLACE WHERE IT’S TIME TO BEGIN
THERE’LL BE NO SORROW AND THE LIGHT WILL COME IN

CH1
AND WE WILL HAVE A NEW SONG, IMAGINE THIS
AFTER THE APOCALYPSE

V2

CAUSE I BELIEVE FAITH I BELIEVE IN LOVE
AND I BELIEVE WE FEEL THE POWER ABOVE
I HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT OUR LOVE IS ENOUGH

CH2

AND WE COULD FALL IN LOVE AGAIN
IMAGINE THIS
AFTER THE APOCALYPSE

BRIDGE 1

AND I THINK I SEE TOMORROW
OVER THE HILL
AND I KNOW THAT WE’LL GET THROUGH, I KNOW WE WILL

V3

CAUSE THERE’S GOODNESS AND THERE’S KINDNESS
I CAN SEE IT IN YOUR EYES
WE’RE STRONGER THAN THE ENEMY
AND THAT IS NO SURPRISE
CAUSE I BELIEVE IN OUR HEARTS
WE’RE HOLDING ON TO LIFE

CHORUS 3

AND WE STILL
WE STILL BELONG
WE STILL
WE STILL BELONG
AFTER THE APOCALYPSE

V4

CAUSE THERE’S GOODNESS AND THERE’S KINDNESS
I CAN SEE IT IN YOUR EYES
WE’RE STRONGER THAN THE ENEMY
AND THAT IS NO SURPRISE, THAT IS NO SURPRISE

REPEAT CHORUS 3

This is really excellent. In the tradition of some real rock classics, besides which it stands perfectly well on its own. I really love it - searingly from the heart, it feels. The lyrics are just perfect for these times, too. Bravo.

Loved the vocal performance on this one. The feel of the song is suitably epic for the title too. Really enjoyed listening to it.

Practice paid off. Another gem. What God will do.
Rev.7:14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
It took a lock down to get David Snyder to come out of his room.

Nice one David. Good to have you back. I’ve been more or less house bound for a month now so I know how it feels.

Hi David,

Great to see you back here with a new song! You have been missed.

Love the lyrics, and as always, the passion in your vocal really drives them home.

Good to know that after the Apocalypse David Snyder is still alive! Well, I'm pretty sure Keith Richards made it too eek
