Capo 5
 
 
[Intro]
D A G  x2
 
[Verse 1]
         D                                A
Well, my buckle makes impressions on the inside of her thigh
          G
There are little feathered Indians where we tussled through the night
       D                                A
If I'd known she was religious then I wouldn't have came stoned
        G
To the house of such an angel too fucked up to get back home
 
[Interlude]
D A G
 
[Verse 2]
        D                           A
Lookin' over West Virginia, smoking spirits on the roof
                G
She asked ain't anybody told ya that them things are bad for you
        D                                      A
I said many folks have warned me, there's been several people try
             G
But up till now there ain't been nothing that I couldn't leave behind
 
[Chorus]
A7                G
Hold me close, my dear
A7                   G
Sing your whisperin' song
A7           G
softly in my ear
    A7          G
and I will sing along
 
                        Bm    A     G
Honey, tell me how your love runs true
         Bm          A        G
and how I can always count on you
A
to be there when the bullets fly
    G              G             G          D
I'd run across the river just to hold you tonight
 
[Interlude]
D A G  x2
 
[Verse 3]
         D                                    A
Well, my heart is sweatin' bullets from the circles it has raced
       G
Like a little feathered Indian calling out the clouds for rain
      D                                A
I go runnin' through the thicket, I go careless through the thorns
        G
just to hold her for a minute, though it'd leave me wanting more
 
[Chorus]
A7                G
Hold me close, my dear
A7                   G
Sing your whisperin' song
A7           G
softly in my ear
    A7          G
and I will sing along
 
                        Bm    A     G
Honey, tell me how your love runs true
         Bm          A        G
and how I can always count on you
A
to be there when the bullets fly
    G              G             G          D
I'd run across the river just to hold you tonight

I'm pretty sure there's a Bm chord in the chorus. ("loves runs true" etc. would be Bm, A, G) But great job though on the rest 👌

I️ believe that the bridge is just: A. G Hold me close my dear... Then the chorus is: G. Bm. A. G Honey tell me how your love runs true G. Bm A. G And I️ can always count on you A Be there with me... G I’d run across...
