[C] I stood alone upon the platform in vain
The Puerto Ricans, they were playing this song
[D] Slept in the [F] rain
With open doors and [C] manual locks
[F] Fast food, [C] parking lots
I headed west, I was a man on the moon
New York had lied to me, I needed the truth
[D] Oh, I [F] need somebody, I needed someone I could [C] trust
And I [Am] don't care, but if [G] I did, I [F] would bet [C] on
Like the Dead Sea
You told me I was like [F] the Dead Sea
You'll never sink when [A] you're with me
[Am] Oh [G] Lord, [F] like the Dead Sea
[C] Oh, I'm like the Dead Sea
Finest words you [F] ever said to me
Honey, can't you [Am] see
I was born to [G] be
[F]
Like the Dead [C] Sea
You told me you were good at running away
[Ab] Domestic life, it never suited you like a [F] suitcase
You left with just your clothes on [C] your back
[F] Took the rest when [Ab] you took [C] the half
Yes, there are times when you live for somebody else
[Ab] Your father died and you decided to live it [F] for yourself
You felt, you just felt [C] at those times
[A] But I'm glad it's [G] the past, [F] that's just [C] not right
Like the Dead Sea
You told me I was [F] like the Dead Sea
You'll never sink when [Am] you're with me
Oh [G] Lord, [F] I'm your Dead [C] Sea
Oh, I'm like the Dead Sea
Finest words you [F] ever said to me
Honey, can't you [A] see
I was born to [G] be
[F] Like the Dead [C] Sea
I've [Am] been down, I've been [A] defeated
[F] You're the message I will heed
[C] [D] Just stay with me, just stay [G] the night
[C] Dead Sea
You told me I was like [F] the Dead Sea
You'll never sink when [A] you're with me
[Am] Oh [G] Lord, I'm your [F] [C] Dead Sea
Oh, I'm like the Dead Sea
Finest words you ever [F] said to me
Honey, can't you see
