[Intro]
[Verse]
D G D G
■ ■ ■ A heart on the run keeps a hand on the gun
D
Can't trust anyone
G
I was so sure what I needed was more
D
Tried to shoot out the sun
Bm G
The days when we raged we flew off the page
D
Such damage was done
G
But I made it through 'cause somebody knew
D
I was meant for someone
[Chorus]
G
So girl leave your boots by the bed
D
We ain't leavin' this room
G
'til someone needs medical help
D
Or the magnolias bloom
Em G Bm7
It's cold in this house and I ■ ain't goin' out to chop wood
D G
So cover me up and know you're enough
D
To use me for good
[Verse]
G
Put your faith to the test when I tore off your dress
D
In Richmond on high
G
I sobered up I swore off that stuff
D
Forever this time
Bm
And the old lovers sing
G D
I thought it'd be me who helped him get home
G
But home was a dream one that I'd never seen
D G D
'til you came along ■ ■
[Chorus]
G
So girl hang your dress out to dry
D
We ain't leavin' this room
G
'til Percy Priest breaks open wide
D
And the river runs through
Em7 Em G Bm Bm7
And carries this house on the stones like a piece of drift wood ■
D G
So cover me up and know you're enough
D
To use me for good
[Solo]
G D G D
■ ■ ■ ■
[Chorus]
G
So girl leave your boots by the bed
D
We ain't leavin' this room
G
'til someone needs medical help
D
Or the magnolias bloom
Em Em7 Em G Bm7
It's cold in this house and I ain't goin' out to chop wood
D G
So cover me up and know you're enough
D
To use me for good
G
So cover me up and know you're enough
D G Asus4
To use me for good ■ ■ ■
