Salt On A Slug

         Em   G     A         G
Her eyes burn, like salt on a slug
       Em    G    A             G
as she melts, she can’t keep it up,
          Em    G        A              G
she needs sleep, but she can’t find the time
         Bm            Em
So she feeds the fire, can’t let it fade
Bm                                      Em
Hope someone will see her and take her away

[Verse 2]
         Em    G       A              G
Her eyes scream ‘cause she can’t keep out
    Em     G        A       G
the dreams, as they blend into
    Em   G    A             G
her days, she bends, 'cause she’s too
 Bm            Em
afraid to end, can’t let it fade
Bm                            Em
Hope someone will see her and take her away

[Verse 3]
    Em   G       A          G
She bends 'cause she’s too afraid
   Em  G     A       G
to end, that forever bender
     Em G         A       G
goes on, tries to pull it together
    Bm                Em
and more on the fire, can’t let it fade
Bm                            Em
Hope someone will see her and take her away

[Verse 4]
    Em         G             A          G
Her island was paradise, but everyone’s gone
Em              G        A             G
Can’t close her eyes, or turn down the song
Em          G         A            G
Hide in the night and keep bending on
    Bm              Em
She feeds the fire, can’t let it fade
Bm                            Em
Hope someone will see her and take her away

[Verse 5]
         Em   G     A         G
Her eyes burn, like salt on a slug
       Em    G    A             G
as she melts, she can’t keep it up,
          Em    G        A              G
she needs sleep, but she can’t find the time
         Bm            Em
So she feeds the fire, can’t let it fade
Bm                                      E
Hope someone will see her and take her away
