Cover Me Up

	  		                       D                                   G                      D  
A heart on the run, keeps a 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 when we raged, we flew off the page, such damage was done  
      D                                                     G                      
But I made it through, 'cause somebody knew, I was meant for  
    D  
Someone  




       D                                       G                               D  
So girl leave your boots by the bed we ain't leavin' 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 goin' out to chop wood  
                     D                               G                          D  
So cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good  



                               D                                   G           
Put your faith to the test, when I tore off your dress, in  
                      D  
Richmond-on-high  
               D                                  G                       D  
I sobered up, and I swore off that stuff, forever this time  
                             Bm                        G                 
And the old lovers' say, I thought it'd be me, who helped him get  
  D  
Home  
                           D                             G                          D  
But home was a dream, one I'd never seen, 'til you came along  




       D                                   G                                 D  
So girl hang your dress up to dry, we ain't leavin' this room  
            D                                                      G                 D  
Til the 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  
Cover me up and know you're enough to use me for good

Til someone needs medical help or the magnolia's bloom  
    Em                                 G                             Bm
