This water is too salty

VERSE 2:

They say they're gonna kill me

They spinned my hammock yesterday,
G
So I'll sleep on the floor.
C D
I'd be under the sea
G
But you hold me above
G C/G
And they put glass in my sandals

So my feet would bleed all day
G C/G
And they forced me to wear them
G D G
Or they said they'd make you pay

I'd be under the sea
G
But you hold me above.
D7sus D7

This blue ocean, babe sometime
