"Ashes By Now"

C
This mornin is Monday
C
Where are you now?
C
Teasin my memory
C
Tellin me how
            G                        F
To lay low when I don't want to
C
Your love is elusive
C 
This I know now
C
It's makin me crazy
C                              G
Leavin me out in the open
                         F
When I don't want to


Am                              C
Baby, I can't go through this again
           Am                                            C
I don't need to go down more than I've already been
            Am                                  C
Just like a wildfire, you're runnin all over town
                    Am                                     C
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now


C
The moments of pleasure
C
Never do last
C
They're gone like a suitcase
C
Full of your past
G
Long gone
F
And in a hurry


Am                              C
Baby, I can't go through this again
                Am                              C
I don't need to go down more than I've already been
            Am                              C
Just like a wildfire, you're runnin all over town
                    Am                                  C
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now

Am  (pause)

C
You're runnin all over town
                    Am                                  C     Am     C     Am 
    C
As much as you burned me baby, I should be ashes by now


            Am                              C
Just like a wildfire, you're runnin all over town
                    Am                                  C
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now
                    Am                                  C
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now


    Am                  C
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ashes by now)
    Am                  C
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ashes by now)
                    Am                                      C     Am     C    
   (repeat and fade)
As much as you've burned me baby, I should be ashes by now
