My heart ain't open, brother
[E]
Keeps a hand on [A] the gun
Can't trust [E] anyone
I was so sure
What I needed was [A] more
Tried to shoot it [E] out of the sun
[B] Days when we [A] ran
[A] Such damage [E] was done
But [B] I made it through
[E] Cause somebody
[A] I was [E] in their soul
Girl, you must find a way
We ain't leaving this
[E]
I ain't through [A] with hell
[E]
[F#m] It's cold in this house
And [A] I ain't going to [C#m] jail
So cover me up
And don't you run [A] off
To [E] use me for love
[B]
[A]
[E]
But you're fading to the test
And I'm torn [A] off your dress
In the cushion [E] on high
[C#] [E] I simmered off
I swore off that [A] stone
Forever [E] this time
And you loved [C#m]
me
[E] Who helped him get home
But home was a place
One I'd never [A] seen
Till you came [E] along
Girl, you must [A] find a way
We [E] ain't leaving this
I ain't through [A] with hell
[E]
[F#m] It's cold in this house

I want to make an order
I want to
