Tip the Salt
Style: Indie folk

[Verse 1]
The salt shaker tips in the grass
Small spill nobody planned
You laugh like it's the whole afternoon
I could sit here and just watch your hand

[Pre-chorus]
I've got no big words ready
No grand thing left to prove
Just this quiet getting louder

[Chorus]
Carol, you're the calm I chose
Not once but every day
I'd pick this patch of grass again
Carol, if you'd stay

[Verse 2]
The cloth is red and going faint
Sun's been hard on the thread
Still you fold it the same careful way
Like something worth keeping instead

[Pre-chorus]
I've got no big words ready
No grand thing left to prove
Just this quiet getting louder

[Chorus]
Carol, you're the calm I chose
Not once but every day
I'd pick this patch of grass again
Carol, if you'd stay

[Bridge]
Some loves come with thunder
Ours came in easy, low
You righted the shaker without a word
And that's how I know

[Chorus]
Carol, you're the calm I chose
Not once but every day
I'd pick this patch of grass again
Carol, if you'd stay

[Outro]
The salt's still sitting crooked
And Carol, so am I, for you
