Lyrics

What’s left to (Bb)say?

These prayers ain’t (Ab)work ing an y (Eb)more.

Ev er y (Bb)word shot down in flames.

What’s left to (Bb)do with these bro ken (Ab)piec es on the (Eb)floor?

I’m los ing my (Bb)voice call ing on You.

’Cause I’ve been shak ing, (Cm)I’ve been bend ing (Eb)back wards ’til I’m (Ab)broke,

(Fm7)watch ing all these (Cm)dreams go up in smoke.

Let (Eb)beau ty come (Ab)out of (Eb)ash es.

Let (Eb)beau ty come (Ab)out of (Eb)ash es.

And, when I (Eb)pray to God, (Ab)all I (Eb)ask is:

can (Eb)beau ty come (Ab)out of (Eb)ash es?

Can You use these (Bb)tears to put out the (Ab)fi res in my (Eb)soul?

’Cause I need You (Bb)here, whoa.

’Cause I’ve been shak ing, (Cm)I’ve been bend ing (Eb)back wards ’til I’m (Ab)broke,

(Fm7)watch ing all these (Cm)dreams go up in smoke.

Let (Eb)beau ty come (Ab)out of (Eb)ash es.

Let (Eb)beau ty come (Ab)out of (Eb)ash es.

And, when I (Eb)pray to God, (Ab)all I (Eb)ask is:

can (Eb)beau ty come (Ab)out of (Eb)ash es?

Can (Bb)beau ty come (Cm)out of (Bb)ash

(Ab)es?
