Emmylou Harris Ashes by Now written by Rodney Crowell
G
This morning is Monday where are you now
D
Teasin' my memory teaching me how to lay low
CC7
When I don't want to
G
Well love is elusive this I know now
It's making me crazy leaving me out
DCG
In the open when I don't want to
G
The moments of pleasures Never do last
Are gone like a suitcase full of your past
DCC7
Long gone and in a hurry
EmG
Baby, I can't go through this again
EmG
I don't need to go down more then I've already been
EmG
Just like a wild fire you're running all over town
EmG
As much as you burn me baby I should be ashes by now
G
The second street beggars alone in their life
Drunk on a sidewalk to hide from the night
DCC7
Like I am They're just like I am
EmG
Baby, I can't go through this again
EmG
I don't need to go down more then I've already been
EmG
Just like a wild fire you're running all over town
EmG
As much as you burn me baby I should be ashes by now
EmG
Just like a wild fire You're running all over town
EmG
As much as you burn me, baby I should be ashes by now
EmEbmDmGEmEbmDmG
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah I should be ashes by now
