John Mark McMillan Ashes and Flames From "The Song Inside the Sounds of Breaking Down" Tabbed by thatchadmiller (Twitter) Drop D on acoustic (See chord shapes below) Verse 1
CYou and I meet on the Cshores of the broken CYou swallow the ocean, I swallow my Am7pride COnly to see the Cway that I need You Is Cmore than I knew I ever Am7could
Chorus 1
D7sus4In between the ashes and the flAm7ames Is a D7suscry an awkward silence could never coAm7ntain And the D7sus4falling of my hammers and the writhing of my pain Is Cjust not as real as the way that You're calling my Cname C
Verse 2 I can't help thinking that the way that You want me And the ghost that haunts me are one and the same Cause you stand at my window at night while I'm sleeping There's not a promise I'm keeping that could ever repay You Chorus 2
D7sus4In between the ashes and the flAm7ames There's a D7sus4song that burns brighter than radio waAm7ves About thD7sus4e remnants of my idols and the shadow of my shame About how they sCcatter like the rain and I can't stop crying Cause You won't stop calling my Cname Calling my Am7name, calling my nCame, up from the Am7ashes
Outro (end on C) C - Am7 - G4 - Am7 As I said above, he's playing this in drop D. Here's the way I play the chords (and I'm pretty sure JMM is), but play them however sounds best for you.
