My Ashes Chords

Tune down 1 whole step
 
 
[Intro]
Em C/G Em/C#
 
 
[Verse]
Em                    C/G
All the things that I needed
Em/C#
Wasted my chances
Em                  C/G    Em/C#
I have found myself wanting
Em                C/G    Em/C#         Em
When a mother and father gave me their problems
      C/G              Em/C#
I accepted them all
Em             C/G
Nothing ever expected
Em/C#      Em
I was rejected
                    C/G   Em/C#
But I came back for more
 
 
[Chorus]
C                  B
And my ashes drift beneath the silver sky
        A                             B
Where a boy rides on a bike and never smiles
C                    B
And my ashes fall on all the things we said
     A                            G E B G E B
On a box of photographs under the bed
 
 
[Verse]
Em                    C/G
I will stay in my own world
Em/C#
Under the covers
Em                  C/G    Em/C#
I will feel save inside
Em                    C/G
A kiss that will burn me
Em/C#         Em
Cure me of dreaming
            C/G   Em/C#
I was always returning
 
 
[Chorus]
C                  B
And my ashes find a way beyond the fog
        A                             B
And return to save the child that I forgot
C                    B
And my ashes fade among the things unseen
A                            G E B G E B
And the dream plays in reverse on piano-keys
 
C                  B
And my ashes drop upon a park in Wales
        A                             B
Never ending clouds of rain and distant sails
C                    B
And distant sails
