D                      (D)                               
I still remember that time when we were dancing 
        Em                          G                   
We were dancing to a song that I'd heard 
D                              (D)                       
Your face was simple and your hands were naked 
        Em                          G                   
I was singing without knowing the words 
D                                (D)                     
But I started listening to the wolves in the timber 
 Em                      G                              
Wolves in the timber at night 
D                                                     
I heard their songs when I looked in the mirror 
        Em                           G                  
In the howls and the moons round my eyes


D
So long, so high
Em          G
So long, so high

(X2)


D                               (D)                     
Then winter came and there was little left between us 
          Em                         G                 
Skin and bones of love won't make a meal 
D                       (D)                             
I felt my eyes drifting over your shoulder 
            (Em)                      G
There were wolves at the edge of the field 
D                         (D)                          
But I still remember that time when we were dancing 
         Em                         G
We were dancing to a song that I'd heard 
D                             (D)
Your face was simple and your hands were naked 
       Em                          G
I was singing without knowing the words


D
So long, so high
Em          G
So long, so high

(X2)


D                                                     
Then one day I just woke up 
(D)                                                    
And the wolves were all there 
 Em                                                   
Wolves in the piano 
 G                                                   
Wolves underneath the stairs 
 D                                                   
Wolves inside the hinges 
(D)                                                   
Circling round my door 
    Em                                                
At night inside the bedsprings 
  G                                                   
Clicking cross the floor 
   D                                                 
I still don't know how they found me 
      (D)                                               
I'll never know quite how 
        Em                                            
I still can't believe they heard me 
            G                                        
That I was howling out that loud
                                                     

 D
So long, so high
Em          G
So long, so high

(X2)

[interlude, same chords]


D                        (D)
Sometimes in the frozen nights I go roaming 
       Em                          G
In the bed she used to share with me 
D                                                     
I wake in the fields 
          (D)                                           
with the cold and the lonesome 
Em                               G
The moon's the only face that I see 
D                       (D)                              
I still remember that time when we were dancing 
         Em                         G
We were dancing to a song that I'd heard 
D                              (D)
Your face was simple and your hands were naked 
        Em                         G
I was singing without knowing the words
                                                     

  D
So long, so high
Em          G
So long, so high

(X2)


[Outro, same chords, with some electric guitar noodling]
