[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C
Well my buckle makes impressions
G
On the inside of her thigh
F
There are little feathered Indians
F
Where we tussled through the night
C
If I'd known she was religious
G
Then I wouldn't have came stoned
F
To the house of such an angel
F C G F
Too fucked up to get back home
[Verse 2]
C
Lookin' over West Virginia
G
Smokin' Spirits on the roof
F
She asked "Ain't anybody told ya
F
That them things are bad for you?"
C
"I said many folks have warned me
G
There's been several people try
F
But up 'til now, there ain't been nothin'
F
That I couldn't leave behind"
[Chorus]
G F
Hold me close my dear
G F
Sing your whisperin' song
G F
Softly in my ear
G F
And I will sing along
Am G F
Honey tell me how your love runs true
Am G F
And how I can always count on you

To be there when the bullets fly
Am F C
I'd run across the river just to hold you tonight
[Mandolin Solo]
C G
[Verse 3]
C
Well my heart is sweatin' bullets
G
From the circles it has raced
F
Like a little feathered Indian
F
Callin' out the clouds for rain
C
I'd go runnin' through the thicket
G
I'd go careless through the thorns
F
Just to hold her for a minute
F
Though it'd leave me wantin' more
[Chorus]
G F
Hold me close my dear
G F
Sing your whisperin' song
G F
Softly in my ear
G F
And I will sing along
Am G F
Honey tell me how your love runs true
Am G F
And how I can always count on you
G N.C.
To be there when the bullets fly
Am G F C
I'd run across the river just to hold you tonight
