{VERSE]
Em G/B C A
A lifetime ago, with frozen eyes they closed the door
G D/F# Em
Suddenly I realized what locks are for
G/B C A G D/F#
No trusting them anymore, lights are out
Em G/B C G
Empty the stare, innocent and unaware
D/F# Em G/B
Dragged out from my home, my lair
C G D/F#
Earmarked me, hurt me, burned me
[PRE-CHORUS]
C D G C
The walls around me, eyes surround me, feed my fear again
D G C
I must be freed or I will die before the harvest moon, my friend
D Em
I do not have another year in me, you've gotta set me free
[CHORUS]
C G
The dream is alive, I can run up the hills every night
D/F# Em
Go around and see another side of the tree
C G D/F# Em
Freedom has a meaning for me, howl with me
[VERSE]
G/B C A
Fear in the dark, I advice you
G D/F#
You can not see the eyes, they grow behind you
Em G/B C A
It's my song they now sing to you
G D/F#
You stand no chance
Em G/B C G
They'll kill for me, steal back my freedom, set me free
D/F# Em
It's my minions versus thee
G/B C G D/F#
Fiery the vengeance, hate will drain me
[PRE-CHORUS]
C D G C
The walls around me, eyes surround me, feed my fear again
D G C
I must be freed or I will die before the harvest moon, my friend
D Em
I do not have another year in me, you've gotta set me free
[CHORUS]
C G
The dream is alive, I can run up the hills every night
D/F# Em
Go around and see another side of the tree
C G D/F# Em
All I want is to be untamed and free, howl and dream
C G
The dream is alive, with the moon on the hills every night
D/F# Em
Run around and see another side of the dream
C G D/F#
Freedom has a meaning for me, you can't tame me
Em F#m G A
[BRIDGE]
A Bm
You will remember the day you crossed my path
A G G#m
Leave me without a guard and you feel my wrath
A Bm
What you have done to me has made me bitter and cruel
A
I'll see that all the hate you spread returns to
G G#m A A#m Bm
you, you, to you
