Intro -  Em , C/G , Em/C# 

Em                    C/G
All the things that I needed
Em/C#
Wasted my chances
Em                  C/G    Em/C#
I have found myself wanting
Em                C/G    Em/C#         Em
When a mother and father gave me their problems
      C/G              Em/C#
I accepted them all
Em             C/G
Nothing ever expected
Em/C#      Em
I was rejected
                    C/G           Em/C#
But I came back for more  

Chorus
C                  B
And my ashes drift beneath the silver sky  
        A                             B
Where a boy rides on a bike and never smiles  
C                    B
And my ashes fall on all the things we said  
     A                            G , E , B , G , E , B

On a box of photographs under the bed  
 
I will stay in my own world
Under the covers  
I will feel save inside
 
A kiss that will burn me  
Cure me of dreaming  
I was always returning  
 
And my ashes find a way beyond the fog
And return to save the child that I forgot
And my ashes fade among the things unseen  
And the dream plays in reverse on piano-keys
 
And my ashes drown upon a (           )    
Never ending clouds of rain and distant sails  
And distant sails
