[Verse 1]
               D                         G                       D
A heart on the run, keeps her 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
                Bm                       G                     D
In days that we raged... we flew off the page, such damage was done
              D                        G                         D
But I made it through, ‘cause somebody knew, I was meant for someone
 
 
[Chorus 1]
   D                            G                          D
So girl leave your boots by the bed, we ain’t leavin’ this room
    D                      G                     D
‘Til someone needs medical help or the magnolias bloom
     Em                       G                        Bm
It’s cold in this house and I ain’t goin’ out, to chop wood
            D                   G                   D
So cover me up and know you’re enough to use me for good
 
 
[Verse 2]
                      D                           G                     D
Put your faith to the test, while I tore off your dress, in Richmond-on-high
          D                        G                   D
I sobered up, and I swore off that stuff, forever this time
                    Bm                       G                      D
And the old lovers’ say... I thought it’d be me, who helped him get home
               D                         G                      D
But home was a dream, one that 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 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
So cover me up and know you’re enough to use me for good

[Chorus 1]
D                            G                          D
Girl leave your boots by the bed, we ain’t leavin’ this room
     D                     G                      D
‘Til 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
            D                    G                  D
So cover me up and know you’re enough to use me for good
 
 
[Outro]
   N.C.                         G
So cover me up and know you’re enough to use me, for good
