Ashes

Ben Harper

guitar tuned 1/2 step Higher (or capo on the first fret)
Couplet:
---------
A                  D       A
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
E                             D        A
that's what has become of our love and trust.
A                           D           A
Love has no direction cause love has no aim
E                     D           A
love can leave you as fast as she came
E                     A
Meeting is such sweet sorrow
      C#m                    D1  (=D avec barre)
cause someday we may have to part
D2             B      C#m  C#sus2 C#m           D2:xx0232
hush don't you make a sound
B            D      A
you're gonna let me down

Couplet:
Good things come to those who wait
but good things are gone from those who are late.
All that I am is all I can give
but with or without you my life I must live
chorus
(instrumental verse)
Living ain't easy
since you've been gone
no one else can please me
or make me feel home
Forgetting ain't easy
you stay on my mind
thoughts of us haunt me
can't leave them behind
chorus
Versión 2 - Ashes (Letra y acordes)
(intro) G   Bm   Em   C

       G
I am a pain
        Bm
In your ass
        Em                            C
And I'm wonderin' how long it's gonna last
      G
Be my mirror
      Bm
Be my friend
         Em
Be the workhouse of the energy
C
I twist your arm to spend

      A
Every day
            C
Like a powerstation
          G           D/F#
You know it isn't good
              Em
I know you're burning too much wood
             Am
But when you burn out
                D
The twisted irony is
(sem acordes)
Your ashes come home to me

( G   Bm   Em   C )

             G
So we take a walk
             Bm
To make some sense
        Em                          C
And I'm wondering if you fancy my defense
           G
But I have pushed you
        Bm
Way too far
             Em 
And you said "fuck you, little Princess
        C9 
Who the hell do you think you are?"

      A
Every day
            C
Like a powerstation
          G            D/F#
You know it isn't good
                Em
You know you're burning too much wood
                  Am
But I said if you burn out
                D
The twisted irony is
D (segura)
Your ashes come home to me

( G Bm Em C ) (2x)

                                  G
Ah well, your ashes come home to me
              Bm
Come home to me
              Em
Come home to me
          C9                                         G
No other sucker gonna have them on the fucking mantelpiece
          Bm
The mantelpiece
          Em      C
The mantelpiece

( G   Bm   Em   C )

Listen to song for tempo and effects I like to use a ibanez tube screamer,
you just have to find the right settings.

Versión 5 - Ashes (Letra y acordes)
Intro: G Em C

G               Em
 You never sat alone
    C                  G
And thought about your own
                       Em           C             G
Holding fisfuls of the ashes of the lady you once were
 
      
                       Em
Your shelves are empty now
     C            G
Your heart is overblown
                            Em            C             G
And the streets you used to blame are now ashamed of you

(G Em C)

G                          Em
 The night is where you're from
   C                  G
At least you thought so
                       Em                  C                  G
As the darkness's now approaching and your lips are wet enough

                       Em
The drink is not too strong
     C                G
Your taste is never wrong
                         Em            C       Am
Though the barman didn't save a single drop of rum


(refrain)
                     C
You're far away from home
              G
Staring at no one
         D                  Am
Waiting long for a better income
                   C
Your time is never gone
                     G
You'll always be the one
                   D                    Am
And never will you have to expose your bone
                     C
It's not that you pretend
                 G
To be somone you can't
                    D                   Am
Just promise in the end you'll be back home
                  C
A little more to share
              G
A stranger to tear
         D
And your ready to go

(G Em C)

G                 Em
The books you read
  C             G
Inside your head
                 Em       C         G
Are the fuel you claim to feel alive

                Em
They dry your tears
 C           G
Along, within
                          Em       C    Am
And then burn down to the ashes of past

(refrain)

Am      Em            Am        Em
Hunting thoughts of a heartless soul
Am      Em           D       C
  Never leave, never let you go
Am         Em               Am       Em
Brought no warmth and won't bring no cold
Am       Em       D         C
Pass you by and retain your glow

(C Em C Em C Em D)

(G Em C)

Note - The drumming is on the off beat.
Note - The bass solo is basicly the verse but up the octive.
Note - I am the best bassist in the world.
