Capo on 2  
 
Intro: Em  A  D 
 
  D                         G               D 
A mansion on a hill    is a lovely sight to see  
         G         D             Em        A 
but like any other house    it's only temporary  
D                       G                  D 
home is anywhere    you choose to put your heart  
   G                 D              Em         A 
if there's no love inside   it will soon fall apart 
 

        G        D       A         D 
Chorus: Ashes to ashes   dust into dust   
G              D           Em           A 
buildings will crumble     bridges will rust   
G              D                                G 
mountains will disappear    and rivers will dry up   
    Em                A              D 
and so it goes   with everything but love  
          Em       A              D              Em   A 
(so it goes)  with everything but love (so it goes) 
 

D                            G         D 
You can drive around    in a long limousine  
       G                       D     Em              A 
if you don't know where you're goin' it don't mean a thing  
D                              G             D 
he who walks a mile    just to hold an empty hand  
G             D          Em           A 
knows what it means   to be a wealthy man 
 
Repeat Chorus: same as above except:(palaces will crumble)  
 

        G    A  D          G        A     D 
Bridge: Worldly treasures  will all pass away   
G       A    Bm                      Em          A  A7 
there's just one thing     that was  put here to stay 
 

             G        D       A         D 
Last Chorus: Ashes to ashes   dust into dust   
G             D           Em           A 
kingdoms will crumble     bridges will rust   
G              D                                G 
mountains will disappear    and rivers will dry up   
    Em                A              D               Em 
and so it goes   with everything but love  (so it goes)  
     A              D              Em 
with everything but love (so it goes)   
     A              D              Em 
with everything but love (so it goes)  
     A             D    Em  A  D 
with everything butlove
