There's

Verse 1
a gal
out in Old West Texas
C 
She don't believe in spells,
don't believe in hexes
D 
Try as she might,
C 
she can't explain what's come over her
G 
She runs into things,
trips over her shoes
C 
G 
C 
She's got a  funny story
for every scrape
and every bruise
D 
And she knew that there'd be trouble
C 
G 
finding a man to give his heart to her
She met a handyman
and he lived down south
C 
She leaned in to give a kiss,
accidentally hit him in the mouth
D 
She chipped his tooth
C 
G 
and it gave him a bad lip
She said, I guess I thought
C 
G 
this would be more romantic
D 
C 
I did not mean to hurt you,
it's just my clumsy index
D 
But he wore her smile
C 
G 
C 
G 
and  did not care about the chip
D 
C 
Put your heart in these

C 
I have a tendency to break so many things
Am 
I left them laying around
G 
where I knew they shouldn't
C 
have been
Am 
Sometimes I   fall down,
G 
C 
I'll get up again
Keep your heart in these
G

clumsy hands
C 
G 
C 
This handyman,
G 
he traveled with his tools
C 
G 
C 
You gotta be prepared, it was his only rule
D 
He met this gal,
C 
he knew he'd have to make a few repairs
G 
C 
G 
A roll of duct tape and
a socket wrench
C 
He's used them plenty
when he's in a pinch
D 
And he handled that clumsy girl
C 
G 
with ever -loving care
D 
C 
Put your heart in these
G

I'll be careful, but you've got to,

G 
C 
Every love story's got to
G 
C 
have a good end
Some rules you break
and some rules you bend
D 
And this handyman,
C 
he tried like hell
G 
to put the ending on
C 
G 
Guess he broke his heart
C 
just one time too many
G 
C 
He looked for his tape,
D 
he found he did not have any
C 
He headed south, he headed south,
G 
he headed south, he headed south
D 
C 
G 
Put your heart in these clumsy hands,
D 
G 
oh

I'll be careful, but you've got to,
G

Left them laying around
where I knew
