Caught In The Briars Tab par Iron And Wine

[Verse 1]
G                        C
The back alley's full of rain
                    G
And everything's shining
                   C
As holy as she can be
                      G
The trick's in the timing


[Verse 2]
                   C
Free as a morning bird
               G
Fragile as china
                             C
She's stuck in the weakest heart
               G
Of South Carolina


[Chorus]
                        Cm
Where all of the naked boys
                 Bm
Lay down beside her
                       Am
Sing her the saddest song
                     G
All caught in the briars


[Verse 3]
                  Cm
I never meant to fall
                   Bm
So hard in the doorway
                      Am
And all the sinners here
                     D
Have crosses for Sunday


[Verse 4]
                       Cm
Kissed at the county fair
                Bm
Frisked in the city
                              Am
Which proves as an answered prayer
                G
But ain't it a pity


[Chorus]
                        C
Where all of the naked boys
                  G
Lay down beside her
                        C
Sing her the saddest song
                     G
All caught in the briars


[Sundown]
                           C
There go the cops with the tomcat teeth
                                     G
Here come the church mice trying too hard
                     C
She had a way to be kind with words
                                 G
I had a knife in the back of my car

                       C
Nobody knows when the rain may come
                             G
Nobody wants wake up and be cruel
                            C
She locked the door and the sun went down
                                   G
In South Carolina with nothing to lose

                Cm           Bm
All of her naked boys
                  Am          G
And not even I was true
