Cinders And Smoke

A great song by Iron & Wine off their Endless Numbered Days album. The only chord that’s a little unusual the 7th removed. The fingering is below.                                                     E|--0--| B|--3--| G|--2--| D|--3--| A|--0--| E|--X--| [Intro] [Verse 1] Give me your hand The dog in the garden row is covered in mud And dragging your mother’s clothes Cinder and smoke The snake in the basement Found the juniper shade The farmhouse is burning down [Interlude] [Verse 2] Give me your hand And take what you will tonight I’ll give it as fast And high as the flame will rise Cinder and smoke Some whispers around the trees The juniper bends As if you were listening [Interlude] [Verse 3] Give me your hand Your mother is drunk As all the firemen shake A photo from father’s arms Cinder and smoke You asked me to pray for rain With ash in your mouth You’ll ask it to burn again [Outro]
