Embers Chords

(ver. 1)
Skinny Lister
[Intro]
| Em          | A           | C           | G           |
 
[Verse 1]
G           C     G           Em
Long is the hour, hard is the day,
  G             C          G      D
I dream of that safe and familiar place.
      G           C            G       Em
Where warm is the welcome, the company good,
G            C           G             D
far from the battle, the blood and the mud.
 
[Chorus]
    C            C/G        G               D
So, stoke up the embers and warm your bones through,
   C            C/G              G           D
forget all your trouble, there's drinking to do.
         G             C       G            Em
Come on, laugh with me loudly, sing with me too,
  G          C         G            D
remember the embers of love that we knew.
        Em         A         C            G
We'll remember the embers of love that we knew.
 
[Interlude]
| Em          | A           | C           | G           |
 
[Verse 2]
G           C         G           Em
Long is the distance, hard is the mile
     G         C            G        D
that drags me away from our innocent smile.
      G           C            G       Em
Where wild is the welcome, the company right,
G            C          G           D
far from the rattle and roar of the fight.
 
[Chorus]
    C            C/G        G               D
So, stoke up the embers and warm your bones through,
   C            C/G              G           D
forget all your trouble, there's drinking to do.
         G             C       G            Em
Come on, laugh with me loudly, sing with me too,
  G          C         G            D
remember the embers of love that we knew.
        Em         A         C            G
We'll remember the embers of love that we knew.
 
[Interlude]
| C           | C/G         | G           | D           |
| C           | C/G         | G           | D           |
| Em          | A           | C           | G           |
 
[Verse 3] (I do play first line in RINGS, then again beat)
G*           C*           G*           Em*
Take my wage packet, well spent at the bar,
N.C.   G            C           D           G
    my soul I would flog it for one last hurrah.
 
[End-Chorus]
    C            C/G        G               D
So, stoke up the embers and warm your bones through,
   C            C/G              G           D
forget all your trouble, there's drinking to do.
         G             C       G            Em
Come on, laugh with me loudly, sing with me too,
  G          C         G            D
remember the embers of love that we knew.
        Em         A         C            G
We'll remember the embers of love that we knew.
 
[Outro]
| Em          | A           | C           | G*          ||
