Johnny Rivers - Ashes and sand

^AmThese feelings have been building up Around us for a ^Gmlong time ^AmI remember days when your ^Bbtrue lovin' ways Flowed thru my life just ^Dmlike sweet ^Dwine ^{C Gm}And lately you've been acting strange ^AmYou feel you need a change There's ^Bbnothing I can do to make you stay ^GmSo if you must say ^Ggoodbye ^{Gm Bb}This is as good a time as any for me to ^Fcry ^Bb

^AmHow can they say that somehow It all ^Gmworks out for the good ^AmWhen life can be so cruel ^CYou feel ^Bbjust like a fool, you know you ^Dmshould ^GmWhat happened to our dreams, ^Bball our well ^Amlaid schemes We just let ^Bbthem slip right on thru our ^Fhands ^{C Gm}And all that's left when the fire is gone ^BbIs just some ashes and a little bit of ^Fsand. ^{Am Gm Am}

^DmSo naive to think it could be ^Gsunshine all the way Look out here ^Amcomes a ^Bbrainy day You know, I'll always ^Flove you deep inside And girl, ^D#I know you never lied to ^Dmme ^BOh there was a time we could fly ^F#so high They couldn't ^Ecatch us if they tried ^D#mThey couldn't ^D#catch us if they ^G#tried.
