Body Ash Lyrics
by The Zolas
The Zolas are the best band and this is an awesome song just play it alrighttttt?
Opening & Verse Riff
Rather than splitting the song between two guitars or choosing between playing the riff or the chords,
there is a solution... As you play the chords, simply hammer the 7th onto the C#m and
hammer the 6th onto the Am7, so they look like this:
My balls are coals in the bottom of our bed
That sags with the ash of our passion spent
I kicked the coals to see if they're still lit
Oh, how much more can I take of this?
su
I don't know how much more I can take of this
You get undressed and I watch the show
You lie beside me but I stay cool
Then the next morning again we go
You dress for work and I watch that, too
su
I don't know how much more I can take of this
I know this tunnel will end with light
But I can't see it, I can't see it
Must be a reason to stay polite
But I can't see it, I can't see it
I keep the fire alive in the night
In the night, in the night, in the night, oh oh oh
I'm sick of sleeping in body ash
Our bed is heaping with body ash
I'm sick of sleeping in body ash
Our bed is heaping with body ash
E D# D C# (single note run-down on A string)
We go for coffee and comfy chairs
Your pen is to your lips but I don't stare
You lean over the table and between your hair
I can't pretend that I don't see what's there
C#m (hit)
Sure, sure, I'm a gentleman but this just ain't fair
I know this tunnel will end with light
But I can't see it, I can't see it
Must be a reason to stay polite
But I can't see it, I can't see it
I keep the fire alive in the night
In the night, in the night, in the night, oh oh oh
I'm sick of sleeping in body ash
Our bed is heaping with body ash
I'm sick of sleeping in body ash
Our bed is heaping with body ash
E G# A B x2
I don't know how much more I can take of this
I don't know how much more I can take of this, oh oh oh
Oooooooh, ooooh, oh oh oh! Oooooooh, oooh, oh oh oh!
Ooooooh, OOOOOOH, oh oh oh! Ooooooh, oooh, oh oh oh!
I don't know how much more I can take of this
