Salty Slugs

Dm G F C 

 
        C            Dm G 
Salting slugs on the concrete 
      C           Dm G 
Salty slugs under my feet 
    F       G       Em      Am 
And where I walk, I leave a trail 
Dm     G     C 
Like a salty snail 
 

 
        C                    Dm G 
Salting slugs at the kitchen table 
        C              Dm G 
Salting slugs keeps me stable 
    F     G    Em     Am 
And every slug gets a name 
Dm     G         C 
Its my favourite game 
 

 
         F                    Am  Dm          C 
Though I know these slugs are not the ones to blame 
       F             Am           Dm       C 
I will hang them and present them just the same 
          F               F#dim          Gm            Abdim 
Becouse I need to have an outlet for the anger and the shame 
        Eb                F             Bb 
Salting slugs and calling them by every dance 
 

 
        C            Dm    G 
Salting slugs in the green grass 
        C           Dm  G 
Salting slugs after gym class 
      F        G         Em      Am 
Their eyes are slime, my back is hunched 
Dm       G         C 
Thats my schoolday lunch 
 

 
        C          Dm        G 
Salting slugs as I fight the tears 
      C           Dm   G 
Salty slugs in my nightmares 
   F         G          Em         Am 
My eyes melt down, they pour those grains 
Dm         G       C 
While they call my name
