I stood alone, upon the platform in vain

Puerto Ricans they were playing me salsa in the rain
C majorC
With open doors and manual locks
FF 
G+G FF C majorC
In fast food parking lots
C majorC E7E7
I headed West, I was a man on the move
New York had lied to me, I needed the truth
FF C majorC
Oh, I need somebody, needed someone I could trust
FF G+G FF C majorC
I don't gamble, but if I did I would bet on us
Chorus:
C majorC
Like the Dead Sea

Verse: (same chords as 1st 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
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
Chorus: (same chords as 1st chorus)
I been down, I been defeated
You're the message I was heeding
Would you stay,
Would you stay the night?
Dead Sea,
Told me I was like the Dead Sea
Never sink when you are with me
Oh Lord, I'm your Dead Sea
Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea
The finest words you ever said to me
No need to move your feet so quickly
Oh Lord, I'm your Dead Sea
