The Wolves by Mandolin Orange
[Intro]
Am F G C
[Verse 1]
C G C
At my gate I'll always greet you. At my door you’re welcome in
F C G
There can be no transgression. As a means to an end
C G C
On the wind the wolves are howling Helping arms are closed in fear
F C G C
Helping hands are clenched in anger Broken hearts beyond repair
[Chorus]
Am F G C
Everything's so great can't get better, makes me wanna cry
Am F G C
That I’ll go out howling at the moon tonight
[Verse 2]
C G C
There she stands, so tall and mighty With her keen and watchful eye
F C G
And the heart of a mother Holding out her guiding light
C G C
It's a hard road to travel Solid rock from end to end
F C G C
The sun, it rises on her brow And sets upon great expanse
[Chorus]
Am F G C
Everything's so great can't get better, makes me wanna cry
Am F G C
That I’ll go out howling at the moon tonight
[Interlude]
Am F G C
[Verse 3]
C G C
There she stands, so tall and mighty Her gaze facing the east
F C G
At her back our doors are closing As we grin and bare our teeth
Am G/B C G C
On the wind the wolves are howling She cries they're drawing near
F C G C
Turn around, turn around my darling Oh, the wolves are here
[Chorus]
Am F G C
Everything's so great can't get better, makes me wanna cry
Am F G C
That I’ll go out howling at the moon tonight
[Outro]
Am F G C
