Capo 1
[VERSE 1]
D G D
A heart on the run, keeps a hand on the gun, it can’t trust anyone
D G D
I was so sure, what I needed was more, tried to shoot out the sun
Bm G D
In days when we raged, we flew off the page, such damage was done
D G D
But I made it through, ‘cause somebody knew, I was meant for someone
[CHORUS 1]
D G D
So girl leave your boots by the bed we ain’t leavin’ this room
D G D
'Til someone needs medical help or the magnolia’s bloom
Em G Bm
It’s cold in this house and I ain’t goin’ out to chop wood
D G D
So cover me up and know you’re enough to use me for good
[Interlude]
D G D
[VERSE 2]
D G D
Put your faith to the test, when I tore off your dress, in Richmond on high
D G D
I sobered up, and I swore off that stuff, forever this time
Bm G D
And the old lovers sing "I thought it’d be me who helped him get home"
D G D
But home was a dream, one I’d never seen, ‘til you came along
[CHORUS 2]
D G D
So girl hang your dress up to dry, we ain’t leavin’ this room
D G D
Til the Percy Priest breaks open wide and the river runs through*
Em G Bm
Carries this house on the stones like a piece of driftwood
D G D
Cover me up and know you’re enough to use me for good
[Interlude]

So girl leave your boots by the bed we ain’t leavin’ this room

It’s cold in this house and I ain’t goin’ out to chop wood
D G D
So cover me up and know you’re enough to use me for good
