Wolves

A                      E
I was 15, still in the valley
A                      E
Walking in a parking garage
A                          E
First time I met a wolf in person
A                           E
At first I thought it was a dog
A                            E
I tried to dodge him, he was faster
A                   E
Than I'd ever had to be

A                                E
He smiled and howled in the same moment
A                               E
It knocked the wind right out of me
A   B                    C#m
       And though I got away
A   B                      Em  F#
       I never walked the same

 E    G#m/D  A             F#m
Now I bury    my smile and show no interest
 E    G#m/D  A          F#m
Now I carry   myself a little different
 E        G#m/D    A             F#m
Now I avoid the woods
 E        G#m/D    A             F#m
Now I  know the wolves

A                      E
I was 19, still fun at parties
A                           E
He plied me with shot after shot
A                    E
He assured me he was harmless
A                      E
Why did I ever trust a fox
A                   E
I ignored all of my teachings
A                         E
How I survived, I can't believe

A                        E
I almost let him get his claws in
A                                 E
Still knocks the wind right outta me
A B                   C#m
    And though I got away
A B                     Em   F#m
    I never walked the same

 E    G#m/D  A             F#m
Now I bury    my smile and show no interest
 E    G#m/D  A          F#m
Now I carry   myself a little different
 E        G#m/D    A             F#m
Now I avoid the woods
 E        G#m/D    A             F#m
Now I  know the wolves

A                     E
Saw a teenage girl on my street
A                      E
Talking tall to one of them
A                    E
Recognized him in an instant
A                       E
Heard about him from my friends
A                          E
Thank god women learned to whisper
A                 E
But I crave a megaphone
A                               E
That wolf said: "It's dangerous out there"
A                                E
That wolf said: "Let me walk you home"

 E    G#m/D  A             F#m
Now I bury    my smile and show no interest
 E    G#m/D  A          F#m
Now I carry   myself a little different
 E        G#m/D    A             F#m
Now I avoid the woods
 E        G#m/D    A             F#m
Now I  know the wolves
