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