Ashen Town Chords

(ver. 1)
Dave Gunning

INTRO: Am  G7  C   F  G  C

N.C. Am       G7      C
Here lies the village church
   Am       G7      C
No cross no hymn no verse
        Am      G7    C
All the colours congregate in shades of grey
        G7              C
And the choir no longer sings
        Am      C      G7
And the bell no longer rings
     Am       G       C
Here lies the village church


N.C. Am         G7      C
Here stands the general store
     Am          G7     C
Dust beams point to the floor
    Am       G7       C
And nails in rusty cans that never sold
          G7               C
There's a faded 'Sorry Closed'
     Am      C           G7
On a peeling painted door
     Am         G       C
Here stands the general store


CHORUS:
           F
And I just walk around
             C
Through this ashen town
        F
Leaving not a trace
       G7         C
Of the last ghost in this place


N.C. Am        G7         C
Here waits the family home
   Am    G7    C
Forsaken and alone
       Am         G7           C
On the walls that kept them all so safe and warm
        G7               C
Peeling paper water stained
       Am        C            G7
'God's Blessing' in it's frame
     Am        G      C
Here waits the family home


CHORUS:
           F
And I just walk around
             C
Through this ashen town
        F
Leaving not a trace
       G7         C
Of the last ghost in this place


CHORUS:
           F
And I just walk around
             C
Through this ashen town
        F
Leaving not a trace
       G7         C
Of the last ghost in this place


N.C. Am       G7       C
Here rests my father's bones
     Am          G7     C
With cracked and fallen stones
Am        G7            C
Marked by weathered cross and worn words
   G7                C
No flowers left behind
   Am                   G7
To mark the passing time
     Am       G        C
Here rests my father's bones


CHORUS:
           F
And I just walk around
             C
Through this ashen town
        F
Leaving not a trace
       G7         C
Of the last ghost in this place


CHORUS:
           F
And I just walk around
             C
Through this ashen town
        F
Leaving not a trace
       G7         C
Of the last ghost in this place
