[Verse 1] D* G A heart on the run keeps a hand on the gun D You can't trust anyone D* G I was so sure what I needed was more D Tried to shoot out the sun D/C# Bm G Days when we raged, we flew off the page D Such damage was done D* G But I made it through, cause somebody knew D I was meant for someone [Chorus] D G (So) Girl, leave your boots by the bed D We ain't leaving this room D G Till someone needs medical help D Or the magnolias bloom Em It's cold in this house G Bm And I ain't going out to chop wood D* G So cover me up and know you're enough D To use me for good [Intro riff] [Verse 2] D* G Put your faith to the test when I tore off your dress D In Richmond on high D* G But I sobered up and I swore off that stuff D Forever, this time D/C# Bm And the old lovers sing, G D "I thought it'd be me who helped him get home" D* G But home was a dream, one I'd never seen D Till you came along [Chorus] D G (So) girl, hang your dress up to dry D We ain't leaving this room D G Till Percy Priest breaks open wide D And the river runs through Em G (And) carries this house on the stones Bm Like a piece of driftwood D* G Cover me up and know you're enough D To use me for good [Intro riff x 2] [Chorus] D G Girl, leave your boots by the bed D We ain't leaving this room D G Till someone needs medical help D Or the magnolias bloom Em It's cold in this house G Bm And I ain't going out to chop wood D* G So cover me up and know you're enough D To use me for good D* G Cover me up and know you're enough D To use me for good [Intro riff] D Chords used: D - 000232 Em - 222000 G - 550030 Bm - x24432 D* - D chord intro riff; follows vocal melody D/C# - x40230
