[Verse 1]
Em My head was warm
My skin was soaked
I called your name 'til the fever broke
When I awoke
The moon still hung
The night so black
That the darkness hums Em
[Break]
C/G Em C/G
[Verse 2]
Em I raised myself
My legs were weak
I prayed my mind be good to me
An awful noise filled the air
I heard a scream
In the woods somewhere C/G

Em C/G Em C/G
[Verse 3]
Em A woman's voice
I quickly ran into the trees
With empty hands
A fox it was
He shook afraid
I spoke no words
No sound he made Em
[Break]
C/G Em C/G
[Verse 4]
Em His bone exposed
His hind was lame
I raised a stone to end his pain
What caused the wound?
How large the teeth?
I saw new eyes were watching me C/G
[Interlude]
Em D/E C/E

Em C/G Em C/G
[Verse 5]
Em The creature lunged
I turned and ran
To save a life I didn't have
Dear, in the chase
There as I flew
Forgot all prayers
Of joining you Em
[Break]
C/G Em C/G
[Verse 6]
Em I clutched my life and wished it kept
My dearest love
I'm not done yet
How many years
I know I'll bear
I found something
In the woods somewhere C/G
