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