[Intro] | D | A | D | C G | [Verse 1]
     D                                D7            G
Your memory is something that I never could seem to lose

        A7                                            D
Oh I've tried everything even drowning your memory in booze

                                     D7           G
So I finally decided to lay down and die with the pain

          A7                                              D
Oh but my heart kept on beating and softly repeating your name
[Chorus]
Am             D               Am                G
Ashes to ashes dust to dust my heart and my mind know

       D                  G
You're still here with us   when they lay me away

    D                  Bm
The last words they'll speak

D                    C     G       D
Here lies a man that don't rest in peace
[Solo] | A | D | C G | [Verse 2]
D                                     D7        G
God gave me your love and God knows I threw it away

        A7                                              D
Oh what I put you through is the same hell I'm living today

                                     D7         G
Now praying don't help so dyin's the best I can do

              A7                                                  D
But when it's all said and done I'll still have these memories of you
[Chorus]
Am             D               Am                G
Ashes to ashes dust to dust my heart and my mind know

       D                  G
You're still here with us   when they lay me away

    D                  Bm
The last words they'll speak

D                    C     G       D     D
Here lies a man that don't rest in peace

                     C     G       D
Here lies a man that don't rest in peace
