[Verse 1]
C
I stood alone, upon the platform in vain
E7 F
Puerto Ricans they were playing me salsa in the rain
C
With open doors and manual locks
F G C
In fast food parking lots
C
I headed West, I was a man on the move
E7
New York had lied to me, I needed the truth
F C
Oh, I need somebody, I needed someone I could trust
F G F C
I don't gamble, but if I did I would bet on us
[Chorus]
C
Like the Dead Sea
F
You told me I was like the Dead Sea
Am
You'll never sink when you are with me
G F C
Oh Lord, like the Dead Sea
C
Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea
F
The nicest words you ever said to me
Am
Honey can't you see,
G F C
I was born to be, be your Dead Sea
[Verse 2]
C
You told me you were good at running away
E7 F
Domestic life, it never suited you like a suitcase
C
You left with just the clothes on your back
F G C
You took the rest when you took the map
C
Yes, there are times we live for somebody else
E7
Your father died and you decided to live
F C
It for yourself you felt, you just felt it was time
F G F C
And I'm glad, cause you with cats, that's just not right
[Chorus]
C
Like the Dead Sea
F
You told me I was like the Dead Sea
Am
You'll never sink when you are with me
G F C
Oh Lord, like the Dead Sea
C
Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea
F
The nicest words you ever said to me
Am
Honey can't you see,
G F C
I was born to be, be your Dead Sea
[Bridge]
Am
I been down, I been defeated
F
You're the message I was heeding
D
Would you stay,
G
Would you stay the night?
[Chorus]
C
Dead Sea,
F
Told me I was like the Dead Sea
Am
Never sink when you are with me
G F C
Oh Lord, I'm your Dead Sea
C
Whoa, I'm like the Dead Sea
F
The finest words you ever said to me
Am
No need to move your feet so quickly
G F C
Oh Lord, I'm your Dead Sea
Hope you like it!
