Emmylou Harris - Ashes by now



(verse 1)
G
This morning is Monday where are you now,
                                      D
Teasin' my memory teaching me how to lay low,
             C      C7
When I don't want to,


(verse 2)
G
Well love is elusive this I know now

It's making me crazy leaving me out,
       D                  C     G - C - G
In the open  when I don't want to,


(bridge)
G
The moments of pleasures, never do last,

Are gone like a suitcase full of your past,
D                  C    C7
Long gone and in a hurry,


(chorus)
Em                            G
Baby, I can't go through this again,
                Em                              G
I don't need to go down more then I've already been,
            Em                                 G
Just like a wild fire  you're running all over town,
                Em                                  G
As much as you burn me baby  I should be ashes by now,


(verse 3)
G
The second street beggars  alone in their life,

Drunk on a sidewalk to hide from the night,
     D                       C   C7
Like I am  They're just like I am,


(chorus)
Em                            G
Baby, I can't go through this again
                Em                              G
I don't need to go down more then I've already been,
             Em                                 G
Just like a wild fire  you're running all over town,
                Em                                  G
As much as you burn me baby  I should be ashes by now,



(ending)
             Em                                  G
Just like a wild fire  You're running all over town,
                Em                                 G
As much as you burn me, baby  I should be ashes by now,
Em  Ebm Dm   G   Em  Ebm  Dm G
Ah ah ah ah ah   ah  ah   ah ah, I should be ashes by now,

(ending chords - Em - Ebm - Dm - G)
