Thea Gilmore Contessa
A D
Contessa, Contessa, oh please leave your hat by the door
A D
Well, I thought I told you you couldn??t call round anymore
A D
And outside in the street and the rains turning tricks on the day
A D
Contessa, I??ve told you so why do you come anyway?
A D
Well, ten years ago by the motorway bridge with a smile
A D
And your red lacquer shoes, oh you lived inside me for a while
A D
I had an old cow bone that I used to draw hearts in the dust
A D
Contessa please tell me just what the hell happened to us
E
??Cause I??ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
E
I??ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
E D A
Run that road home
A D
I was a scared little kid with a head full of hormones and holes
A D
With one eye on atonement and a body already grown old
A D
There you were with your secrets and your notebook of genuine lies
A D
Saying ??girl its your party but you sure as hell don??t wanna cry, don??t wanna cry
E
I??ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
E
I??ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
E D A
Run that road home
Yeah, run that road home
A D
So I was the black sheep, yeah, I was the lone cavalier
A D
But with a face like stone, oh Connie its lonely out here
A D
I??ve taken some pills and I??ve played with the hand I was dealt
A D
And you saved me that time but now I??ve learned to save myself
E
And I??ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
E
I??ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
Run that road home
Oh, run that road home
Yeah, run that, run that, rung that, run that, road home
Yeah, run that road home
