   Afterglow    (Genesis)

  G  /  Gmaj7  /  C/G  /  Csus4  /  G  /  Gmaj7  /  C/G  /  F  D
    G         Gmaj7     C/G           Csus4
     Like the dust that settles all around me
    G       Gmaj7      C/G   F   D
     I must find a new home
    G             Gmaj7      C/G             Csus4
     The ways and homes that used to give me shelter
    E            A         B  /  G  D
     Are all as one to me now.
         Eb                Fm                 C#           Eb
     But I, I would search everywhere just to hear your call
                   Fm
     And walk upon stranger roads than this one
           C#                     Eb      Bb       C  /  Gsus4  /
     In a world I used to know before. I miss you more
    G        Gmaj7   C/G           Csus4
     Than the sun reflecting off my pillow
    G             Gmaj7         C/G   F   D
     Bringing the warmth of new life
    G        Gmaj7       C/G         C
     And the sounds that echoed all around me
    E             A                 B  /  G  D
     I caught a glimpse of in the night
            Eb                 Fm                    C#       Eb
     Oh but now, now I've lost everything, I give to you my soul
                    Fm
     The meaning of all that I believed before
        C#                        Eb       Bb       C
     Escapes me in this world of none, no thing, no one.
                        Dm                  Bb        C
     And I would search everywhere, just to hear your call
                      Dm
     And walk upon stranger roads than this one
           Bb                    C
     In a world I used to know before
                       Dm                    Bb     C
     For now I've lost everything. I give to you my soul
                    Dm
     The meaning of all that I believed before
        Bb                       C       G        A
     Escapes me in this world of none. I miss you more.

      D  /  Dmaj7  /  G  /  Gsus4  /  D  /  Dmaj7  /  G  /  C  A
   
On the Csus, play around with the F (the fourth) and the D (the second) as well as 
adding a G on the sixth string. 

Most of this is derived from a previous submission from Mick Abrahams, but there 
are are a few differences. Thanks to Mick for 95% of it.
