Penance Fire Blues  Bobby Long

This not 100% He goes up the neck and I couldn't figure it out but this sounds ok.
Any help would be appreciated.
Standard Tuning in D
(Verse 1)
[D]And I see papers and papers
[F]Stacked up in formation
[C]That mean much before
[G]They're lining the fire
[D]As the bottomless heat goes
[F]To harness your anger
[C]Your blood and
[G]Your deepest desir[D]e
(Verse 2)
Because there's no truth stolen
[F]That's been ever brought forward
[C]By the minds of the writers
[G]Looking face down on the gutter
[D]Cause this world's full of thinkers
[F]And suffragette speakers
[C]Who deny that they ever wear a dres[G]s
Oh, this god forsaken town is in a m[D]ess
(Chorus)
[D]And all the truths been let out loose
[F]Is desperate to amuse
[C]As it grabs you by the throat
[G]And strings out all the times you've used
[D]But now you don't belong
[F]You whisper when you speak
[C]You turn yourself to nighttime
[G]You're trying to find your [D]feet
So let me r[C]un, Lord
Lord, Lord, Lo[G]rd
Run...
Lord, just let me ru[D]n
So let me ru[C]n, Lord
Lord, Lord, Lor[G]d
Lord, just let me ru[D]n
Riff
(Verse 3)
[D]But as the morning awakens
[F]That light sends a shudder
[C]The twist of hope that helped you down
[G]Is left to rest and stir
[D]You back down a hallway
[F]To flourish the darkness
[C]And fool yourself
You did it all for he[G]r
And him, and her[D]
(Chorus)
[D]And all the truths been let out loose
[F]Is desperate to amuse
[C]As it grabs you by the throat
[G]And strings out all the times you've used
[D]But now you don't belong
[F]You whisper when you speak
[C]You turn yourself to nighttime
[G]You're trying to find your [D]feet
So let me r[C]un, Lord
Lord, Lord, Lo[G]rd
Run...
Lord, just let me ru[D]n
So let me ru[C]n, Lord
Lord, Lord, Lor[G]d
Lord, just let me ru[D]n
Outro
[D]But I've seen your face before
[F]Rich boy playing poor
[C]Ravaging the whores
[G]Ignoring constant calls
[D]Now you don't belong
[F]You whisper when you speak
[C]You turn yourself to nighttime
[G]You're trying to find your feet
So let me [C]run, Lord
Lord, Lord, Lo[G]rd
Run...
Lord, just let me ru[D]n
So let me ru[C]n, Lord
Lord, Lord, Lor[G]d
Lord, just let me ru[D]n
