Salinas chords by Laura Marling

Key: Bb

Verse :
Bb                          Bb/Ab
I am from Salinas where the women go forever
         Bb/G                      Bb/F
And they never ever to stop to ask why
   Bb                      Bb/Ab
My mother was a saviour of six foot of bad behaviour
     Bb/G                               Bb
With long, blond curly hair down to her thigh



Bb
Oh my mother Oh my friends
Bb                     Bb/Ab     Gbmaj7   Bb
Ask the angels "Will I ever see heaven again "

Verse 2:

Bb                                Bb/Ab
Late into the evening, they would take each other screaming
        Bb/G                      Bb
Looking darkly to the back of her eye
    Bb                                   Bb/Ab
The careless beast was bleating that the air behind was breathing
          Bb/G                       Bb/F
That they musn't ever look up to the sky
Bb
There are no answers there are found
Bb                  Bb/Ab Gbmaj7 Bb
Ask the angels, "Am I heaven-bound "


Bridge:

Bb Bb/Ab    Bb/G    Bb/F Bb
Mmmm put it down to me
Bb/Ab        Bb/G    Bb/F
I, who speak awkwardly
    Bb             Bb/Ab            Bb/G    Bb/F
Any word, if it is heard, is not intended to be
        Bb            Bb/Ab       Bb/G             Bb/F
Not for them, not for her not for him, and not for me
F                     Eb
Oh and that gun would turn before the sun starts to burn, understand


Interlude:

we start paying for our sins
       Bb        Bb/Ab       Bb/G      Bb/F Bb
With a gun in my hand and my sun at my shoulder
  Bb           Bb/Ab           Bb/G     Bb/F Bb
Believe I will run before that boy gets older
F                     Eb                                       Bb
