He Said He Had a Story  The Dear Hunter

i only recently got into The dear hunter and i instantly loved it.
i spent about half an hour figuring out this song which is one of my momentary
favorites of "life and death".

[A] [5-7-7-6-5-5]  
There was a [Am]silver circle [E]sign, and she was [Am]standing at the d[E]oor
we pressed our [Am]way right through the cr[E]owd, or pace was q[Am]uickened to her
fl[E]oor,
there was a s[Am]ingle feigning lig[E]ht, and there was s[Am]ilk all on the wal[E]ls,
she had a l[Am]ot of love to giv[E]e, I was pre[Am]pared to take it a[E]ll
"And what did she do next?"
[Am]She had disrobe[E]d, and she was [Am]waiting on the [E]floor.
She asked me [Am]what it was I wa[E]nt, I thought that [Am]I wanted it al[E]l.
"What did you say?"
E(open)
I said "Stand up and move your body to the bed."
She quickly [C]stood, and slowly turned, and
here's ex[E]actly what she said.
[F]"Please be soft and [D/F#]sweet to me, this [G]life has not been [E/G#]good
E/A E/H E/A A G F E(open) Dm C(open)
you see its hard with such a his___tory
F E(open) F E(open) F E(open)
bu___ried in mi_________se___ry."
"And what did you do next?"
[Am]I broke a smil[E]e reminding t[A]hat I paid h[E]er well.
Her lips re[Am]turned, and then I [E]felt her hands un[Am]buckling my be[E]lt.
"So was it good?"
E(open)
It felt like heaven, but I'm sure she was in hell-
I made it [C]clear I'd get my money's worth out [E]of the goods she sells.
[F]Break and bind your[E/G#]self to me, de[Am]liver what you've [F]sold
you see that [Dm]I will only [E/G#]take from you, and [Am]use it up.
I'll [A]use you up "[Dm]What was your [E/G#]na____[E/A]______[E/B]________me".[Am]
[Am]interlude
[F]Break and bind your[E/G#]self to me, de[Am]liver what you've [F]sold
you see that [Dm]I will only [E/G#]take from you, and [Am]use it up.
I'll [A]use you up "[Dm]What was your [E/G#]na____[E/A]______[E/B]________me".[Am]
