Chord/Tab song: Cooling of the Embers

..studio version

Missy Higgins - Cooling of the Embers


Capo at 1st

You p[C]ut your hand on top of mine
you're t[G]alking fast but talking blind
and I c[F]an't bring myself to m[C]eet your [G]eyes


'cos d[C]eath is slowly covering you
in g[G]alaxies of black and blue
and [F]under your skin all hi[C]s colors bl[G]oom


And you're only h[Dm]alf here
like s[Am]omeone le[G]ft a frail b[Dm]ody and t[Am]ook the r[G]est


But I rem[C]emb[F]er when y[Dm]ou were strong
n[G]ever wanted help from[C] no-o[F]ne
Dm G C, Dm, G
what you've become is not who I remember
C, Dm, Em, F, G
Is this the cooling of the embers?


She's b[C]ack again through summers past
the sm[G]ell of rain and freshly cut grass
seems those o[F]rdinary days are [C]the ones that l[G]ast


Cos h[C]e was there, the one you loved
the [G]one you never could let go of
and there's s[F]omething you know as you're[C] looking u[G]p


That your only h[Dm]alf here
like s[Am]omeone l[G]eft a frail b[Dm]ody and st[Am]ole the r[G]est


But I rem[C]emb[F]er when y[Dm]ou were strong
n[G]ever wanted help from[C] no-o[F]ne
Dm G C, Dm, Em
what you've become is not who I remember
F C, Dm, Em, F, G, Am, F. G
Is this the cooling of the embers?
is this the c[Am]ooling of the [F]embers?


[G]Cos you are n[Am]ot who I reme[F]mber
[G]it's like you are a ch[Am]ild, you are a ch[F]ild, you are a child once more
[G]and all of our y[Am]esterday's have g[F]one


You p[C]ut your hand on top of mine
you're t[G]alking fast but talking blind
and I c[F]an't bring myself to m[C]eet your ey[G]es...

Enjoy :)
