VERSE 1
A heart on the [D]run, keeps a hand on the[G]the gun, it can’t trust an[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 some[D]someone
CHORUS 1
So [D]girl leave your boots by the [G]bed we ain’t leavin’ this [D]room
'Til [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 e[G]enough to use me for [D]good
Interlude
[D] [G] [D]
VERSE 2
Put your faith to the [D]test, when I tore off your [G]dress, in Richmond on h[D]high
I sobered [D]up, and I swore off that [G]stuff, forever this [D]time
And the old lovers [Bm]sing "I thought it’d be m[G]me who helped him get ho[D]home"
But home was a [D]dream, one I’d never [G]seen, ‘til you came a[D]along
CHORUS 2
So [D]girl hang your dress up to [G]dry, we ain’t leavin’ this [D]room
Til [D]the Percy Priest breaks op[G]open wide and the river ru[D]runs through*
[Em]Carries this house on the [G]stones like a piece of drift[Bm]driftwood
Cover me [D]up and know you’re e[G]enough to use me for [D]good
Interlude

CHORUS 1
So [D]girl leave your boots by the [G]bed we ain’t leavin’ this [D]room
[D]Til someone needs medi[G]medical help or the magnoli[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 e[G]enough to use me for [D]good
TAG
Cover me [D]up and know you’re e[G]enough to use me for [D]good
