Intro
Bm D G (x2)
[Verse 1]
Bm D G
I lay around this stillborn Sunday
Bm D G
the nameless, graceless wreck you leave in me
Bm D G
I stood silent at your waking theater,
Bm D G
Deluded and grotesque, I hemorrhage history
[Chorus]
D A Bm
But I won't be visited again
D A G
By the ghosts of things that never came to be
D A Bm
I won't let my heart settle in
D A
To the fallow soil that sprawls out
Bm G A D
From the fringes of the swaying Salton Sea
[Interlude]
D Bm (x2)
[Verse 2]
Bm D G
We let their hurried beat busy our bones
Bm D G
But our tempo tempered hearts are always idle
Bm D G
We drink the water from their fountain
D Bm G A
This place could never be the things that we both need
D Bm G A
No, this place could never be the things that we both need
[Verse 3]
G Bm A
And I want the things that I can't have
G Bm A
And I need to find a new way out
D A G
And I will crawl out from the wreckage of my past
D A
And we'll fall head first and weary of
Bm G A
The place we've hung our hats for all these years
Bm A
Wait for the night, we'll disappear
[Chorus]
D A Bm
But I won't be visited again
D A G
By the ghosts of things that never came to be
D A Bm
I won't let my heart settle in
D A
To the fallow soil that sprawls out
Bm G A D
From the fringes of the swaying Salton Sea
