Log Hearth And Ash

D Gm A Dm

[Verse 1]
D                               
There are others in this house, I 
Gm
hear them calling from the outer 
rooms
A                         Dm
Log, hearth and ash under stale 
kerosene fumes
D                                 
Footsteps in the saddening snow 
      Gm
lead me farther from this place
A                         
Second chair drums keeping 
Dm
swaggering pace

[Bridge]
F                                 
But there are few who know where 
   Bbm
I'm going
                            A
And few who know where I've been
    A
Not again

[Chorus]
F                      C
I've burned my desire, placed it 
upon the pyre
Gm                              
Seen the floors cave in and our 
F#
hearts swell within
F                            C
Turned water into piss, felt sodden 
and soiled from a wretched kiss

Gm                          
Filled an ocean with tears, all 
A#              A
within just 27 years

D Gm A Dm x2

[Verse 2]
D                            Gm
Spare me the compassion that other 
men might show
A                        Dm
All has been lost in the harvest 
moon glow
D                              
With hateful embers in my chest, 
          Gm
I'll go wandering through the night
A                        Dm
With godspeed I'll travel downward 
hence the light

[Bridge]
F                                 
But there are few who know where 
   Bbm
I'm going
                            A
And few who know where I've been
A
Not again

[Chorus]
F                      C
I've burned my desire, placed it 
upon the pyre
Gm                              
Seen the floors cave in and our 
F#
hearts swell within
F                            C
Turned water into piss, felt sodden 
and soiled from a wretched kiss
Gm                          
Filled an ocean with tears, all 
A#              A
within just 27 years

D Gm A Dm x2

[Interlude]
D*               Gm*         
The pages of my time-worn life, 
     A
written in blood
D*                       Gm*
The skin will peel, the wounds won't
 heal
A
Awaiting the flood

[Chorus]
F                      C
I've burned my desire, placed it 
upon the pyre
Gm                              
Seen the floors cave in and our 
F#
hearts swell within
F                            C
Turned water into piss, felt sodden 
and soiled from a wretched kiss
Gm                          
Filled an ocean with tears, all 
A#              A
