Note: The chords sound better when are played as perfect fifths.

Road Salt (by Pain of Salvation)


Am                F              Dm
 This time I'll try not to get hurt
Am                F                  Dm
 This time I'll stay untouched with pain and dirt
Am                F                  Dm
 This time I'll stick to what I've learned
Am                F           Dm
 This time I'll fly so low I won't get burned

C            G      Dm
 Maybe it's not enough
C            G          Dm      F
 Maybe this time it's just too much
C           G         Dm
 Maybe I'm not that tough
C            G         Dm      F        G
 Maybe this time the road is just too rough
           Dm  F  G 
 to walk down,      so I sit down.

Am    F    Dm    (2x)

Am                  F            Dm
 I've walked this road so many years
Am               F                  Dm
 I've worn down all my boots, I've cried all tears
Am          F              Dm
 So many crossroads left behind
Am          F              Dm
 So many choices burned into my mind

C            G      Dm
 Maybe it's not enough
C            G          Dm      F
 Maybe this time it's just too much
C           G         Dm
 Maybe I'm not that tough
C            G         Dm      F        G
 Maybe this time the road is just too rough
           Dm   F   G
 To take me home     (4x)
           (Am)
 But I walk on
