Chords for Matt Heckler, "Ain't No Ash Will Burn," by Walt Aldridge // GemsOnVHS™

It was a pretty powerful feeling, I mean, kind of dangling off the edge of a cliff that _
so many people
_ gave up everything to cross
the view that you see on that cliff all the way to America,
months-long trips with whole families not knowing what to expect when they got to the other side. _ _ _
I have seen snow that fell in May
And I have seen rain [D] on cloudless [Gm] days _
Some things are always better [D] _ changed
_ When there ain't no ash will [G] burn
_ Love is a [D] precious _ thing, [G] I'm told
_ Burns just like West _ Virginia _ coal
_ But when the fire [D] burns out, it's cold
_ _ And [G] there ain't [D] no ash will [G] burn
_ _ _ You _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ say this life [D] is not [G] your lot
_ But I can't be something _ that I'm not
_ Can't stoke a [D] fire that we ain't got _ _
When [G] there ain't no ash will burn
_ Love is a precious _ [D] thing, [G] I'm told _
Burns just like [Bm] West _ Virginia [G] coal
_ But when the fire [D] burns out, it's cold _
_ And there [G] ain't no [D] ash [Gm] will burn _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ In every life [D] there comes [G] a time _
When there'll be no [D] more tears to [G] cry
_ You must leave _ [D] something dear _ _ behind
_ [Em] _ When [G] there ain't [D] no ash will [G] burn
_ _ Love is a precious [D] _ thing, [G] I'm told
Burns just like West _ _ Virginia coal
_ But [D] when the fire burns out, it's cold
_ And there ain't no ash will [G] burn _ _
If there's one thing I have learned
_ [D] Is there ain't no ash will [G] burn _ _ _ _
