               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

In days when we raged, we flew off the page, such damage was done

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

Put your faith to the test, when I tore off your dress, in Richmond all high
          D                        G                   D
I sobered up, and I swore off that stuff, forever this time
                   Bm                       G                      D
In the old lovers’ scene, 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
