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