Dead Sea (acoustic)

	  		

Intro: C 

Verse:
 
C                                        C/E 
 I stood alone, upon the platform in vain 
                                                Fmaj7 
Puerto Ricans they were playing me salsa in the rain 
                             C 
With open doors and manual locks 
   Fmaj7     C/E  C  
In fast food parking lots 

Pre-chorus:
 
C                                      C/E 
 I headed West, I was a man on the move 

New York had lied to me, I needed the truth 
     Fmaj7                                   C 
Oh, I need somebody, needed someone I could trust 
         Am              G6          Fmaj7  C 
I don't gamble, but if I did I would bet on us 

 
C 
 Like the Dead Sea 
                           Fmaj7 
You told me I was like the Dead Sea 
                           (C) Am 
You'll never sink when you are with me 
   G6         Fmaj7     C 
Oh Lord, like the Dead Sea 
C 
 Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea 
                          Fmaj7 
The nicest words you ever said to me 
                (C) Am 
Honey can't you see, 
               G6         Fmaj7 C 
I was born to be, be your Dead Sea 


Verse:
  
You told me you were good at running away 
Domestic life, it never suited you like a suitcase 
You left with just the clothes on your back 
You took the rest when you took the map 

Pre-chorus:
 
Yes, there are times we live for somebody else 
Your father died and you decided to live 
It for yourself you felt, you just felt it was time 
And I'm glad, cause you with cats, that's just not right 

 
C 
 Like the Dead Sea 
                           Fmaj7 
You told me I was like the Dead Sea 
                           (C) Am 
You'll never sink when you are with me 
   G6         Fmaj7     C 
Oh Lord, like the Dead Sea 
C 
 Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea 
                          Fmaj7 
The nicest words you ever said to me 
                (C) Am 
Honey can't you see, 
               G6         Fmaj7 C 
I was born to be, be your Dead Sea 


Bridge:
 
Am                         Am/G  Fmaj7 
 I been down, I been defeated 
                                C  Dsus2/A 
You're the message I was heeding 

Would you stay, 
                G 
Would you stay the night? 

 
C 
 Like the Dead Sea 
                           Fmaj7
