G
Oh, you poor boy out in the water
Em
It’s sad now, looking back from here
C G
It’s bad, oh so bad the things you had to see
Now I know that your heart just pumps blood all the time
Em
And I know that your mind keeps playing all your thoughts
C D
And I know that you only stand to see the best in me
Em
I was saved by salt
C
Sugar and pills
D
Yeah, I was saved from all the things
C
That you could have possibly come after me
Em
I was saved by salt
C
I was saved by her swinging
D
She talked about saving my soul
C
But I just wanted to be whole with you
(G Em C D)(2x)
G Em
When I was reaching for the best you had to give
G Em
I really wanted all your worst to fall in, dear
G
When I got ripped off your hands
Em
Freezing hands out west
G
Was when my hunger for her
Em
Drowned me up in dust
C
And now my fire grows as I walk down
D
Your lips are slow around your mouth
C
Inside this house
D
Time has stopped for me
Em
I was saved by salt
C
Sugar and pills
D
Yeah, I was saved from all the things
C
That you could have possibly come after me
Em
I was saved by salt
C
I was saved by her swinging
D
She talked about saving my soul
C G
But I just wanted to be whole with you
