Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Em][D][C][Em][C][G]

[Verse 1]
My heart [G]was beatin'
like a bully [Em]on the smallest i[Dsus4]n our class[C]
[G]Chasing you 'round the playground thr[Dsus4]ough
[Em]the sandbox an[Dsus4]d the gra[C]ss
I'm [G]still haunted by your memory
[Em]and echo o[Dsus4]f your laugh[C]
You took [Am]my hand and showed
me how to see
[Dsus4][D]

[Verse 2]
[Em]Ashes, [D]ashes [C]all fall [Em]down[D][C]
[Em]I was lost[D] but now I[C]'m
[Em]found[Dsus4][C]
[Em]Merry[D], merry [C]we go 'round
And [Em]ashes, [Dsus4]ashes all[C] fall down,

[Interlude 1]
hey
[C][Em][Dsus4][C][Em][C][Dsus4][G]

[Verse 3]
[G]Highlight reels from our wonder years
[Em]play rerun[G]s in my [Dsus4]mind[C]
[G]Turn behind my eyelids,
[Dsus4]they help[Em] to pass[Dsus4] the time[C]
[G]You've always been a beauty, babe,
but [Em]nothing [Dsus4]can compare
[C]See[G]ing you standing there with
[Em]flowers [Dsus4]in your hair[C][Em]
[Am]Dance barefoot beneath the stars
[C]to a Neil Young tune
Firework[Am]s flamed down
from a July [Dsus4]moon[D]
And we sang baby
[Em]Ashes, [D]ashes

[Verse 4]
[C]all fall [Em]down[Dsus4][C]
[Em]I was lost[D] but now I[C]'m
[Em]found[Dsus4][C]
[Em]Merry, [Dsus4]merry we [C]go 'round
It's [Em]ashes, [Dsus4]ashes all[C] fall down,

[Interlude 2]
hey
[Em][D][C][Em][Dsus4][C][Em][D][Dsus4][C][Em][D][Dsus4][C]

[Verse 5]
[F](Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
[C]Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

[Verse 6]
[C]All [F]the[D]se [Dsus4]years,[D][Em][C]
[G]I still hear y[Em]our whisperi[C]ng in the w[G]ind[Em]
Calling [C]me to [G]come back here
to [Em]where it [C]all [G]began
[Em]I hope somewhere [D]from
the oth[G]er side
You're [Em]free from [G]all [Em]the pain
I wipe [C]a tear with [G]a wrinkled hand
[Em]And sing one [C]last [G]refrain

[Verse 7]
[Em]Ashes, [C]ashes [G](as[Em]hes,[C][G][Em]
[C]ashes)[G][C][G]
[Em]Ashes, [C]ashes (Ashes, ashes)
[G]Ashes, ashes (Ashes, ashes)
Oh, [Em]ashes, [C]ashes [G](Ashes,
[Em]ashe[C]s)
[G]Ashes, ashes
They all fall down
