Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Dm][Dsus4][D]

[Verse 1]
I [D]wear my father's
leather on the inside [C]of my skin
I'm [G]a tried and weathered woman,
[D]but I w[Dm]on't be tried aga[F]in
[C]Don't [D]think that you can come for me
without [C]your Sunday best
You had [F]better call your priest and
hope the [C]devil gets the rest
Before [D]I do
[F]Oh, and I will [Dm]do
[D][Dsus4][G][D]

[Verse 2]
I have worn the jester's bells and
I have [C]vanished with the fools
I have [F]worshiped at the altar
of the puppet [C]master's rules
I have [D]held my tongue too many
scenes be[C]fore the final act
With my chil[F]dren in the cheap seats
and a [C]zipper on my back
Thanks to [D]you
[F]No [Dm]thanks to you
[Dsus4][D]

[Verse 3]
[Dsus4]Tethered [D]in wide open spaces[G][F]
In [G]fields that lead for [Bb]miles
Right into the [Am]bar rel of a [D]gun
[Bb]Mendin' up your [Am]fences with my
[D]Horses [C]runnin' [Bb]wild
Only broken [Am]horses know to
run
[D][F][Dm][G][Dsus4][G][D]

[Verse 4]
I have ever so politely treaded
softly [C]for your grace
I have [F]whispered through the tears
and pleaded [C]sweetly to your face
It is [D]time to spit you out like lukewarm
[C]water from my mouth
I will [F]always taste the apathy,
but [C]I won't pass it down
[D]It dies [F]with you[Dm]
You
[D][Dsus4][D]

[Verse 5]
Tethered in wide [Dsus4]open spac[G]es[F]
In [G]fields that lead for [Bb]miles
Right into the [Am]bar rel of a [D]gun
[Bb]Mendin' up your [Am]fences with my
[D]Horses [C]runnin' [Bb]wild
Only broken [Am]horses know to run

[Interlude 1]
[D][C]
[Em][F][Em][D][C]
[Em][F][Am][Asus4][D]
[C][Em][F][Am][D]
[C][Em][Am][F]

[Verse 6]
I [D]wear my father's leather on
the in[C]side of my skin
I'm a tried [Dm]and weathered woman,
but I [F]won't be tried again
[C]Don't [D]think that you can come for me
without [C]your Sunday best
You had [F]better call your priest and
hope the dev[C]il gets the rest
Before I [D]do
[F]Oh, [Dm]and I will do
[Dsus4][D]

[Verse 7]
[D]Tethered in wide open [Dm]spaces[F]
In [G]fields that lead for [Bb]miles
Right into the [Am]bar rel of a [D]gun
[Bb]Mendin' up your [Am]fences with my
[D]Horses [C]runnin' [Bb]wild
Only broken [Am]horses know to run
