Chords

[Intro] C F C [Verse 1]
               C                       F
A heart on the run keeps a hand on the gun

                   C
You can't trust anyone

         C                      F
I was so sure what I needed was more

                       C
Tried to shoot out the sun

             Am                     F
Days when we raged, we flew off the page

                C
Such damage was done

              C                        F
But I made it through, 'cause somebody knew

                   C
I was meant for someone
[Chorus 1]
   C                             F
So girl, leave your boots by the bed

                      C
We ain't leaving this room

     C                     F
Till someone needs medical help

                 C
Or the magnolias bloom

     Dm                       F                       Am
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood

            C                  F
So cover me up and know you're enough

              C
To use me for good
C F C [Verse 2]
                      C                          F
Put your faith to the test when I tore off your dress

                C
In Richmond on high

              C                         F
But I sobered up and I swore off that stuff

              C
Forever this time

                    Am
And the old lover's sing

                   F                      C
"I thought it'd be me who helped him get home"

               C
But home was a dream

               F                 C
One I'd never seen till you came along
[Chorus 2]
   C                           F
So girl, hang your dress up to dry

                      C
We ain't leaving this room

     C                        F
Till Percy Priest breaks open wide

                   C
And the river runs through

    Dm                        F
And carries this house on the stones

                     Am
Like a piece of driftwood

         C                    F
Cover me up and know you're enough

               C
To use me for good
C F C Am F C [Chorus 1]
   C                             F
So girl, leave your boots by the bed

                      C
We ain't leaving this room

     C                     F
Till someone needs medical help

                 C
Or the magnolias bloom

     Dm                       F                       Am
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood

            C                  F
So cover me up and know you're enough

              C
To use me for good
