D Bm
Oh darling I don't think this serenade
A Bm
is gonna carry through, is gonna carry through
D Bm
You're screaming and you're fighting with your brain
A Bm
and the battling war drives you back and forth, driving you insane
[CHORUS]
D Bm
You're crying, you're crying, you're crying
A Bm
Oh but the salt tastes so divine
D Bm
This love, this love, this love
A Bm
is what I want, is what I want.

[VERSE] (same Chords)
It's been a while since she had spoke to you
and she passed some words, but then you passed a fire
memories flooding back into that part that you want to forget
and you wanna kill, ohh and you wanna kill
[CHORUS] (same Chords)
You're crying, you're crying, you're crying
oh but the salt tastes so divine
This love, this love, this love,
is what I want, is what I want.
