            D                    F#m
Yesterday’s makeup, wind tangled curls
                Bm                      A
She’s waking up empty in her own little world
                 D                         F#m
She’s puttin’ on coffee, she’s pourin’ him some
             Bm     A                   G
He’s got her in his heart and under his thumb


Chorus:
    D                              A
You dig into her side if she don’t flinch you kick again
Bm                                A
With no rhyme or reason she takes off full speed ahead
          D                             A 
She don't notice anymore oh cause she’s callused by the pain
    Bm    A      G  
She don’t feel a thing
          Bm       A       G 
So why do you give her the spur 
                            D  
When you know she needs the reins

                   D                                F#m
When she’s feelin’ lonely, you don’t reach out your hand
                   Bm                     A 
When you fence her in, do you feel like a man


Chorus 2:
When you dig into her side if she don’t flinch you kick again
With no rhyme or reason she takes off full speed ahead
She don't notice anymore oh cause she’s callused by the pain
She don’t feel a thing
So why do you give her the spur
When you know she needs the reins

Chorus

Outro:
She was unbridled, she’ll always be
Cause you can never hold something that was made to run free
