Minor Victories – Scattered Ashes (song for Richard)
[Intro]
G Em
G Em
D C
G Em
Drunk in the morning sun
G Em
I could be talking to you dear or anyone
D C
This is my hiding place
G Em
I’d found a focus
G Em
You were a light on the shadow of a darkened path
D C G
Its an empty world now you are gone
[Chorus]
Am C
Tell me what it’s all about
G D Am C
Shed tears for god’s rejected
G D
Cut the cord, rewind the ending
Am C G
Take my life back to the start
D Am
Pick up the pieces of my heart
C G
Let it be over
Let it be over
G Em
G Em
D C
G Em
Smoke another cigarette
G Em
Draw into the cavern of my failing
D C
Lungs with heightened senses
G Em
Scattered ashes
G Em
All that’s left of a lifetime that we had planned
D C G
I am here and you are not
Am C
Tell me what it’s all about
G D Am C
Cruel gods of intervention
G D
Cut the cord, rewind the ending
Am C G
Take my life back to the start
D Am
Pick up the pieces of my heart
C G
Let it be over
Let it be over
G Em
G Em
D C
[Bridge]
G
Scattered ashes
Em
Someday we might find
D Am C
a way back to each other
G
But for now
Am C
Tell me what it’s all about
G D Am C
Shed tears for god’s rejected
G D
Cut the cord, rewind the ending
Am C G
Take my life back to the start
D Am
Pick up the pieces of my heart
C G
Let it be over
Let it be over
End on G
