Dead Sea Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]I stood alone, upon the platform in vain
[Caug]The Puerto Ricans
they were playing their salsa in the [F]rain
With open doors and manual [C]locks
In [F]fast food park[Fm]ing lots

[Verse 2]
[C]I headed west, I was a man on the move
[Caug]New York had lied to me, I needed the truth
Oh, I [F]need somebody,
I needed someone I could [C]trust
I don't [Am]gamble,
but if I [G]did I would [F]bet on [C]us

[Chorus 1]
Like the [C]Dead Sea
You told me I was like the [F]Dead Sea
You'll never sink when you are [Am]with me
Oh, [G]Lord, like the [F]Dead [C]Sea
Whoa, I'm like the [C]Dead Sea
The finest words you ever [F]said to me
Honey can't you see,
[Am]I was born to be,[G]
be your [F]Dead [C]Sea

[Verse 3]
[C]You told me you were good
at running away
[Caug]Domestic life,
it never suited you like a suit[F]case
You left with just the clothes on your [C]back
[F]Took the rest when you took [Fm]the map

[Verse 4]
[C]Yes, there are times,
we live for somebody else
[Caug]Your father died and you decided to live
It for your[F]self you felt,
you just felt it was [C]time
And I'm [Am]glad,
cause you with [G]cats, that's [F]just not [C]right

[Chorus 2]
Like the [C]Dead Sea
You told me I was like the [F]Dead Sea
You'll never sink when you are [Am]with me
Oh, [G]Lord, I'm your [F]Dead [C]Sea
Whoa, I'm like the [C]Dead Sea
The nicest words you ever [F]said to me
Honey can't you see,
[Am]I was born to be,[G]
be your [F]Dead [C]Sea

[Bridge 1]
[Am]I've been down,
I've been defeated
[F]You're the message, I will heed it
[Dm]Would you stay,
Would you stay the [G]night?

[Chorus 3]
Ooh
[C]Dead Sea,
You told me I was like the [F]Dead Sea
Never sink when you are [Am]with me
Oh, [G]Lord, I'm your [F]Dead [C]Sea
Whoa, I'm like the [C]Dead Sea
The nicest words you ever [F]said to me
Honey can't you see,
[Am]I was born to be,
[G]be your Dea[F]d Sea[C]
