[Verse 1]
  D*                                   G                    D
A heart on the run keeps a hand on the gun you can't trust anyone
  D*                            G                           D
I was so sure what I needed was more tried to shoot out the sun
     D/C#     Bm                     G                    D
Days when 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]
     D                             G                         D
(So) Girl, leave your boots by the bed we ain't leaving this room
     D                     G                      D
Till someone needs medical help or the magnolias bloom
     Em                       G                       Bm
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood
    D*                           G                   D
So cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good


[Intro riff]


[Verse 2]
    D*                                           G                    D
Put your faith to the test when I tore off your dress in Richmond on high
    D*                                  G                   D
But I sobered up and I swore off that stuff forever, this time
           D/C#    Bm                       G                      D
And the old lovers sing, "I thought it'd be me who helped him get home"
    D*                               G                  D
But home was a dream, one I'd never seen till you came along


[Chorus]
       D                          G                         D
(So) girl, hang your dress up to dry we ain't leaving this room
      D                         G                       D
Till Percy Priest breaks open wide and the river runs through
      Em                        G                          Bm
(And) 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


[Intro riff x 2]

[Chorus]
 D                             G                         D
Girl, leave your boots by the bed we ain't leaving this room
     D                     G                      D
Till someone needs medical help or the magnolias bloom
     Em                       G                       Bm
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood
    D*                           G                   D
So cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good
  D*                           G                   D
Cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good
