Ashes of American Flags - Wilco

Ashes of American Flags chords

[D]The cash machine [G]is blue and green
[D]For a hundred in twenties [G]and a small service fee
[Em]I could spend three dollars [A]and sixty-three cents
[D]On Diet Coca-Cola [G]and unlit cigarettes

[D G D G]

[Em]I wonder why we listen to poets
[A]When nobody gives a f**k
[D]How hot and sorrowful
[G]This machine begs for luck

[F#m]All my [G]lies are always [Bm]wishes
[Em]I know I would [A]die if I could come back new

[D G D G]

[D]I want a good life
[G]With a nose for things
[D]A fresh wind and bright sky
[G]To enjoy my suffering

[Em]A hole without a key
[A]If I break my tongue
[D]Speaking of tomorrow

[G]How will it ever come?

[F#m]All my [G]lies are always [Bm]wishes
[Em]I know I would [A]die if I could come back new

[Em]I'm down on my hands and knees
[A]Every time the doorbell rings
[D]I shake like a toothache
[G]When I hear myself sing

[F#m]All my [G]lies are only [Bm]wishes
[Em]I know I would [A]die if I could come back new

[D]I would like to salute
[G]The ashes of American flags
[D]And all the fallen leaves
[G]Filling up shopping bags
