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


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


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

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

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

C C
Like the Dead Sea
F F
You told me I was like the Dead Sea
Am Am
You'll never sink when you are with me

Oh Lord, like the Dead Sea

Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea

The nicest words you ever said to me
Am Am
Honey can't you see,
G G F F C C
I was born to be, be your Dead Sea


Am Am F F
I been down, I been defeated
Am Am F F
You're the message I was heeding
Am Am
Would you stay,
F F G G
Would you stay the night?

C C
Like the Dead Sea
F F
You told me I was like the Dead Sea
Am Am
You'll never sink when you are with me

Oh Lord, like the Dead Sea

Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea

The nicest words you ever said to me
Am Am
Honey can't you see,

I was born to be, be your Dead Sea
