[Verse 1]
After you, I was chasin' in a sunset scene
That Seger song in the backseat was kinda our thing
You drove a Pontiac and my heart crazy
If you jumped off that river bank, hell, I'd do the same after you
I'd walk into that bar right behind
Catch a stare down with some old boy, let 'em know you were mine
Swore it was gonna last the rest of our lives
But fireworks in February turned to one damn cold July

[Chorus]
And now I'm burnin' down this hole in the wall
And I'm just tryna make some sense of it all
Lookin' for answers on this old bar stool
Just tryna figure out life after lovе, after leavin'
After too much drinkin', aftеr you

[Verse 2]
After you, I thought about takin' that runway
To I don't care, anywhere but this rundown place
Leave all this shit and put my Chevy in drive
I'll take any town, any day, any state but out of my mind

[Chorus]
And now I'm burnin' down this hole in the wall
And I'm just tryna make some sense of it all
Lookin' for answers on this old bar stool
Just tryna figure out life after love, after leavin'
After too much drinkin', after you

[Instrumental Break / Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
I should've ran after you
Fast as I can after you
I didn't know I was gonna need a plan after you
You can tell after you
It's been hell after you
I don't even know who I am after you

[Chorus]
And now I'm burnin' down this hole in the wall
And I'm just tryna make some sense of it all
Lookin' for answers on this old bar stool
Just tryna figure out life after love, after leavin'
After too much drinkin', after us
After dreamin', after too much thinkin', after you

[Outro]
After you
After you

Jason Aldean

After almost 15 years at the top of his format, reigning ACM “Artist of the Decade” Jason Aldean has seen trends come and go. Hell, he helped bring a few out of the shadows, like a Country-music Columbus making the mainstream’s first contact with hard rock (“Hicktown”), hip-hop (“Dirt Road Anthem”), and R&B (“Burnin’ It Down”). For 9, Aldean’s ninth studio project, he offers 16 interwoven tracks in an era of stand-alone singles and superstar EPs, holding his ground for a modern album with an old-school soul. A three-time ACM Entertainer of the Year, Aldean’s a card-carrying member of the Country’s elite headliners whose incendiary tours are nearing legendary status. Also a dominant force on the charts, he’s scored 23 Number Ones and notably, all eight of Aldean’s previous studio albums have been certified Gold or Platinum by the RIAA. He’s the only Country act in history to top the all-genre Billboard 200 four times (in a row, no less), racking up four billion streams and more than 18 million albums sold along the way.
