D

D 
A 
Yeah, when I was only seven teen

I could hear the angels whispering

Verse 2

It turned out to be

the howling of a dog

Or a wolf to be exact

The sound sent shivers down my back

But I was drawn into the pack

and before long

They allowed me to join in

and sing their song

Verse 3
G 
D 
So from the cliffs and highest hill
G 
D 
A 
Yeah, we would gladly get our fill
G 
Howling endlessly
D 
A 
and shrilly at the dawn
D 
And I lost the taste for
G 
D 
A 
judging right from wrong
G 
D 
For my flesh had turned to fur, yeah
G 
D 
A 
And my thoughts, they surely were
G 
Turned to instinct
D 
A 
and obedience to God

Interlude 1

Chorus 1
G 
D 
You can wear your fur
A 
Like a river on fire
G 
D 
But you'd better be sure
G 
D 
A 
If you're makin' God a liar
G 
D 
I'm a rattlesnake, babe
G 
D 
A 
I'm like fuel on a fire
G 
D 
So if you're gonna get made
D 
Bm 
A 
Don't be afraid of what you've learned
D 
A 

Verse 4
D 
On the day that I turned
G 
D 
A 
twenty- three
D 
G 
I was curled up underneath
D 
A 
a dogwood tree
G 
D 
When suddenly a girl,
G 
D 
A 
her skin the color of a pearl
G 
She wandered aimlessly
D 
A 
but she couldn't seem to see

Verse 5
D 
G 
She was listenin' for the angels
D 
A 
just like me
G 
D 
So I stood and looked about
D 
A 
I brushed the leaves off of my snout
G 
And then I heard my mother
D 
A 
shouting through the trees
D 
You should have seen that girl
G 
D 
A 
go shaky at the knees

Verse 6

So I took her by the arm

We settled down upon a farm

And raised our children up

as gently as you please

Interlude 2

Verse 7
G 
D 
And now my fur has turned to skin
G 
D 
A 
And I've been quickly ushered in
G 
D 
A 
To a world that I confess I do not know
D 
But I still dream of running
G 
D 
A 
careless through the snow
G 
D 
And through the howling winds that blow
A 
Across the ancient, distant flow
G 
D 
And fill our bodies up like water
A 
till we know
