[Verse 1]
D                      A
Confuse your muse in a full bar
D                    A
Crack the code of my Lone Star
C#                   D
Channel seven, local news
           A
I'm out of options
            G
It's what I choose

[Chorus 1]
       A
I am a salt mine
            G
It's what I choose
              A
That's what I choose

[Verse 2]
D                     A
Woke up again with my clothes on
D                        A
But haven't yet left the stove on
C#                       D
I lost my leg to a Brown Recluse
        A
I was a gold mine
            G
Turned to a salt mine

[Chorus 2]
            A
It's what I choose
       G
I am a salt mine
            A
It's what I choose

[Bridge]
F#                                  G
There's nothing here; it feels like blues
F#                                G
There's nothing here that I don't choose
               D            C
And I'm up for auction if I choose
           D                  C
If I don't play then I can't lose
           A
I'll never lose

[Outro]
C#                       D
I fell in bed with Lot's wife
             A                G
I was a gold mine turned to a salt mine
              A
That's what I choose
       G
I am a salt mine
           A
I'll never lose
            G
I am a salt mine
              A
That's what I choose
