Dust to Dust
Artist: Dave Gunning
(Capo 2)
Verse 1:
D G
They say that the wicked don’t rest
D G
Not in this world or the next
D G
She parks behind the line of long black limousines
A G
She had to see it for herself
Verse 2:
D G
He used to say that she was pretty
D G
With her mother’s golden hair
D
And then one night he crossed a thousand lines
G A G
With a breath of homemade wine lying heavy in the air
Chorus:
D G
There’s no use denying
D
Trying to pretend
G
The long road to forgiveness
Doesn’t ever end
A D
There’s no easy way to
G
Learn to let it go
A
Back to where it was
D G D G
Like dust to dust
Bridge:
A
That door won’t close
And that light won’t dim
G
It’s a floodgate wide open with the waves crashing in
A
Frozen like the wheels of that broken-down car
D G
A constant reminder of a hand-me-down scar
D G D G
And it goes on…
Solo (D G D G)
Verse 3:
D G
Nobody understands it
D G
Nobody’s ever known
D G
They just walk away and leave her praying
A G
In the shade of his stone
Chorus:
D G
There’s no use denying
D
Trying to pretend
G
The long road to forgiveness
Doesn’t ever end
A D
There’s no easy way to
G
Learn to let it go
A
Back to where it was
D G D G
Like dust to dust
