Subject: ASHES TO ASHES by The Wallflowers
Ashes To Ashes
(words & music by Jakob Dylan)
Basically the rhythm guitar for this song is played in a power chord fashion.
I will not transcribe it like that because the organ plays regular chord
shapes. Just like father like son, I have a bit of the problem understanding
what Dylan is saying but I will try my best:
Intro: F Em Am (4x)
F Em Am
Well you can walk like a stranger, head back in your hair
F Em Am
Bringing gifts, while you act so sincere
F Em Am F Em Am
F Em Am
Bringing gifts, oh boy, he~s five years
F Em Am
A game for rocks and traini...ing wheels
F Em Am F Em Am
Am
C G F G Em
Well I don~t remember you from any of those books
C G F G Em E
Ashes to ashes, and six feet under face down in a box
F Em Am
Where~d you ever learn to treat me like that
F Em Am F Em Am
F Em Am
You don~t see that, baby ahh..., that famous stuff
F Em Am
You know the Harvard folds law, that penniless rough
F Em Am F Em Am
F Em Am
Your bad luck follows you like a heart attack
F Em Am
Twist your fingers, soon as break your back
F Em Am F Em Am
Am
C G F G Em
Well I don~t remember you from any of those books
C G F G Em E
Ashes to ashes, and six feet under face down in a box
F Em Am
Where~d you ever learn to treat me like that
F Em Am
F Em Am
It~s coming from another withered mother who~s just like yours
F Em Am
Bringing you aches and all those mental sores
F Em Am
Take a little half, so need some for yourself
F Em Am
Like an itty in the gritty, they always seem by themselves
F Em Am
Well you must be, had-to-be, one of these
F Em Am
Honey, on the shed on the open tree
F Em Am
Didn~t I meet you once in a liquor store
F Em Am
I think I saw you hanging by the stage door
F Em Am
Handing out programs to the family theater
F Em Am
Deprive the row, so you don~t miss her or treat her
Am Am Am Am
You take it
Am
Why take it?
G
Fast and ever
F Em Dm
If you gave yourself a chance...
C G F G Em
Well I don~t remember you from any of those books
C G F G Em E
Ashes to, ashes and six feet under faced down in a box
F Em Am
Where~d you ever learn to treat me like that?
F Em Am...
