Ashes On The Sea chords by Utah Phillips


Utah Phillips Chords

ASHES ON THE SEA (Utah Phillips)
 Lyrics From: Stewart - Mudcat Cafe
Sung by:  Utah Phillips
Banjo tuned E, Capo 3, Key of G

(The Second verse first line, needs help (Verne))

ASHES ON THE SEA  Bruce Phillips
A song in remembrance of Woody Guthrie. He was cremated and his 

ashes scattered on the sea off Coney Island.

     G                      C
What is this song I hear repeating
                                G
Sprung from the careless seeds you've sown
                                 C
Our songs will come and go like seasons
                      D7         G
To bloom and fade all on their own.

      G           C           C
And now I know I cannot find you
          A                D 
You're gone from all but memories
        G                      C
And I am told that one who loves you
              D7               G
Has strewed your ashes on the sea   

    G                        C
I stepped outside for just a moment
                          G
To turn and look on my own face
                           C
What is that shadow just behind me
                 D7                G
Why it's the old one I reach out to embrace

It's one thing to look upon a picture
It's another thing to read the pages through
Or perhaps to linger by the wayside
Hoping I might find a trace of you

Your dust clouds still blow across your footprints
Your best friend still stands there all alone
Your box cars still keep the lovers parted
Your little boys still run away from home
