the thing about fences Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Wrap around porch, a dog in the yard
A couple of acres [Am]that we
could call [G]ours
[C]Straight from the cover of home magazine
And [Am]doesn't that [G]sound
like [F]any girls [C]dream[G]

[Verse 2]
[C]You promised me, a white [F]pick[C]et fence
To circle around [Am]the life we could [G]live
[C]And I would be crazy to turn that all down
But [Am]I'm feeling [G]crazy, r[F]ight about n[C]ow

[Verse 3]
[C]But the thing about [F]fences
Their made to hold [C]back
A heart that wants [Am]freedom,
a heart that [G]wants fast
The thing about [F]fences
for the wild horse [C]within
[G]They might kee[Am]p the bad out[G]
But they [F]keep the good [C]in
They might [Am]keep the bad [G]out
But they [F]keep the good [C]in

[Verse 4]
[C]
I have so much, that can't [F]be [C]contained
I [F]am [C]a thunderstorm [Am]I am the[G] rain
I [C]know you mean well,
and I'll always love you
But [Am]settling [G]down ain't
what [F]I'm born [C]to do

[Verse 5]
[C]The thing about [F]fences
Their made to hold [C]back
A heart that [Am]wants freedom,

The thing about [F]fences
for the wild horse [C]within
[G]They might kee[Am]p the bad out
[G]But they [F]keep the good [C]in
They might [Am]keep the bad out
[G]But they kee[F]p the good in[C]

[Verse 6]

You promised me, a white picket fence
To [Am]circle [G]around [F]the life we could live

The thing [F]about fences
Their made to hold [C]back
A heart that wants [Am]freedom,
a heart that wants [G]fast
The thing about [F]fences

[G]They might kee[Am]p the bad out[G]
But they [F]keep the good [C]in
[G]They might [Am]keep the bad out
