Salton Sea chords by Elway

Intro: Am, C, F (x2)

Am          C                F
I lay around this stillborn Sunday
    Am                   C                 F
the nameless, graceless wreck you leave in me
Am             C                F
I stood silent at your waking theater,
Am               C                   F
Deluded and grotesque, I hemorrhage history

C               G          Am
But I won't be visited again
        C                    G             F
By the ghosts of things that never came to be
C           G                Am
I won't let my heart settle in
        C                 G
To the fallow soil that sprawls out
          Am             F      G       C
From the fringes of the swaying Salton Sea

Break: C, Am (x2)

    Am                C             F
We let their hurried beat busy our bones
         Am             C                F
But our tempo tempered hearts are always idle
Am            C                F
We drink the water from their fountain
Am                C            F                   G
This place could never be the things that we both need
     Am               C            F                   G
No, this place could never be the things that we both need

    F           Am                 G
And I want the things that I can't have
    F           Am            G
And I need to find a new way out
            C                  G              F
And I will crawl out from the wreckage of my past
           C                   G
And we'll fall head first and weary of
    Am                    F                  G
The place we've hung our hats for all these years

Am            G
Wait for the night, we'll disappear

C               G          Am
But I won't be visited again
        C                    G             F
By the ghosts of things that never came to be
C           G                Am
I won't let my heart settle in
        C                 G
To the fallow soil that sprawls out
          Am             F      G       C
From the fringes of the swaying Salton Sea
