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