Tone: [D]
Intro:
[D] [G] [D] [A]
Verse 1:
It's d[D]ark and it's quiet in my ho[G]use tonig[D]ht
B[D]Babies are all gone to sle[A]sleep
It's ha[D]rd to imagine a be[G]tter lif[D]e
Than the o[Bm]ne I g[A]et to le[D]ad
I had a g[D]lass of wine but my m[G]ind is cle[D]ar
These wa[D]walls they talk to m[A]me
Don't bl[D]ink an eye, you're a yo[G]ung man n[D]ow
But y[Bm]ou won[A]'t always b[D]e
 
Chorus:
My bl[Bm]blood and my bones
My hea[G]heart and my h[D]hands
They [Bm]try to hold all of this [A]in
But I'm ru[D]nning to you like a we[G]st Texas win[D]d
Singing G[Bm]od I nee[A]d you, o[G]h, how I ne[D]ed you
G[Bm]od I ne[A]ed you aga[D]in
 
Verse 2:
I've lea[D]rned to hide my fe[G]ar in my bon[D]es
My bo[D]body don't shake like the k[A]kids
But I'm eas[D]ily scared and oft[G]en confu[D]sed
I rar[Bm]ely kn[A]ow what I di[D]d
I've ma[D]de mistakes and even wo[G]rse than th[D]at
I've hu[D]hurt the ones that I lo[A]love
I wis[D]h that peace would f[G]ind me her[D]e
But it sel[Bm]dom ev[A]er does[D]
 
Chorus:
My b[Bm]blood and my bones
My he[G]heart and my ha[D]hands
They [Bm]try to hold all of this i[A]in
But I'm run[D]ning to you like a wes[G]t Texas wi[D]nd
Singing G[Bm]od I ne[A]ed you, o[G]h, how I ne[D]ed you
Go[Bm]d I need[A] you ag[D]ain
 
Bridge:
I'[D]m in the shadows of He[G]aven and Ea[D]rth
May[D]Maybe they should be the sam[A]same
But my Ear[D]thly body is bou[G]nd and con[D]flicted
And I'm l[Bm]eft feel[A]ing the pa[D]in
This ho[D]use is not our on[G]ly ho[D]me
You ca[D]can't protect love with st[A]stone
God I k[D]know you can hear me
So ple[G]please come nea[D]near me
I'm re[Bm]ady to l[A]et the world g[G]o
 
Chorus:
My bl[Bm]blood and my bones
My he[G]heart and my han[D]hands
They t[Bm]try to hold all of this in[A]in
But I'm runn[D]ing to you like a wes[G]t Texas wind[D]
Singing Go[Bm]d I need[A] you, o[G]h, how I ne[D]ed you
Go[Bm]d I need[A] you ag[D]ain
