No Capo
[Intro]
  G    G    G    G    G    GFC   G    G    G    G  
GI've dodged the flame of love, my heart's been slippery and cold
I always thought I'd walk this path, F'least until I was Calmost Gold
Those sweet lips and eyes of green cut me like a blade of steel
Pull my heart like an eighteen wheel Frunning up a CTennessee Ghill
[Chorus]
CI was a Grollin' stone, my Ffeet never Ctouch the Gground
CShe was the Gonly one that Fever could Ctie me Gdown
[Solo]  
 C  G  F C G  C  G  F C G  G  G Em D C
GFeel like I left behind, trapped to an angel's wings
Bounded to a new born love, Ftied up in the Capron Gstrings
I used to live alone, never needed anyone
And she turned my head around, I Fdidn't even Ctry to Grun
[Chorus]
Yeah, CI was Grollin' stone, my Ffeet never Ctouch the Gground
CShe was the Gonly one that Fever could Ctie me Gdown
[Solo]
C  G  F C G  C  G  F C G
C  G  F C G  C  G  F C G
G  G Em D C7
GLookin' back, I realize happy is not what I was
When you run across a woman, it's your true love that Fstronger than a Cmoonshine Gbuzz
[Chorus]
Yeah, CI was Grollin' stone, my Ffeet never Ctouch the Gground
CShe was the Gonly one that Fever could Ctie me Gdown
[Chorus]
Yeah, CI was Grollin' stone, my Ffeet never Ctouch the Gground
CShe was the Gonly one that Fever could Ctie me Gdown
[Chorus]
Yeah, CI was Grollin' stone, my Ffeet never Ctouch the Gground
CShe was the Gonly one that Fever could Ctie me Gdown
Yeah, Cshe was the Gonly one that Fever could --- Ctie me --- Gdown ---
