[Intro]
D F G D
[Verse]
D C
I wear my father's leather on the inside of my skin
G
I'm a tried and weathered woman,
F C
but I won't be tried again
D
Don't think that you can come for me
C
without your Sunday best
F
You had better call your priest and
C
hope the devil gets the rest
D
Before I do
F G D
Ohhh, and I will do
[Verse]
D
I have worn the jester's bells and
C
I have banished with the fools
F
I have worshiped at the
C
altar of the puppet master's rules
D
I have held my tongue too many scenes
C
before the final act
F
With my children in the cheap seats
C
and a zipper on my back
D
Thanks to you
F G D
No thanks to you
[Chorus]
D G
Tethered in wide open spaces
Bb
And fields that lead for miles
Bb Am D D
Right into the barrel of a gun
Bb Am
Mendin' up your fences with my
D C Bb
Horses runnin' wild
Bb Am D F G D
Only broken horses know to run
[Verse]
D C
I have ever so politely treaded softly for your grace
F
I have whispered through the tears and
C
pleaded sweetly to your face
D
It is time to spit you out like
C
lukewarm water from my mouth
F
I will always taste the apathy,
C
but I won't pass it down
D F
It dies with you
G D
You
[Chorus]
D G
Tethered in wide open spaces
Bb
And fields that lead for miles
Bb Am D D
Right into the barrel of a gun
Bb Am
Mendin' up your fences with my
D C Bb
Horses runnin' wild
Bb Am D D
Only broken horses know to run
