Lord I Have Made You A Place In My Heart

D C G A D


[Verse 1]

D                         C           G
Oh Lord I have made you a place in my heart
          A                          Bm
Among the rags and the bones and the dirt
        D                 C                  G
There's piles of lies the love gone from her eyes
    A                         D
And old moving boxes full of hurt


[Pre-Chorus]

C         G            D
Pull up a chair by the trouble and care
      C              G          A
I got whiskey you're welcome to some


[Chorus]

   D                      C            G
Oh Lord I have made you a place in my heart
      A                          D
But I don't reckon you're gonna come


[Verse 2]

D                                C              G
I've tried to fix up the place I know it's a disgrace
        A                   Bm
You get used to it after a while
         D                             C            G
With the flood and the drought and old pals hanging out
           A                 D
With their I.O.U.s and their smiles


[Pre-Chorus]

C          G     D
Bare naked women keep coming in
         C              G          A
And they dance like you wouldn't believe


[Chorus]

   D                      C           G
Oh Lord I have made you a place in my heart
   A                         D
So take a good look and then leave


[Verse 3]

D                             C           G
Oh Lord why does the fall get colder each year
     A                    Bm
Lord why can't I learn to love
     D                        C       G
Lord if you made me well it's easy to see
         A                     D
That you all make mistakes up above


[Pre-Chorus]

         C        G             D
But if I open the door you will know that I'm poor
       C           G          A
And my secrets are all that I own


[Chorus]

   D                      C           G
Oh Lord I have made you a place in my heart
      A                      D
And I hope that you leave it alone
