D            G     C       G 
This bed of ashes, Where I sleep 
C             G      D       G      D 
Is covered in deep, and cold memories 
               G            C           G   C 
The walls that surround it, Once held a flame 
                G      D           G 
Now this bed of ashes is all that remains 
D 
I can barely recall at all 
C                  G 
The happy times we knew 
D 
But the heartache and pain you left 
C                       D 
Still linger on in this room 
                   C       G    C 
This bed of ashes, Where I sleep 
              G     D        G 
Is covered in deep, and cold memories 
               G            C           G   C 
The walls that surround it, Once held a flame 
                G     D           G 
Now this bed of ashes is all that remains 
 
SOLO 
 
D 
Maybe someday I'll leave behind  
    C                     G 
The love you left so long ago 
D 
There's no way I can survive 
C                                      D 
In this place where we once called our home  
D           G      C       G    
This bed of ashes, Where I sleep 
C             G      D       G      D 
Is covered in deep, and cold memories 
               G            C           G   C 
The walls that surround it, Once held a flame 
                G      D           G 
Now this bed of ashes is all that remains 
C              G      D           G 
Now this bed of ashes is all that remains 
G 
This bed of ashes
