           G          Cadd9 G/B  D    D/C
Yeah, when I was only se-   ven- teen 

        G               Cadd9 G/B  D   D/C
I could hear the angels whis- per- ing

     C               G                  Cadd9  G/B D
So I drove into the woods and wandered aimlessly about

       C               G                    D   D/C
Until I heard my mother shouting through the fog

          G             Cadd9   G/B  D   D/C
It turned out to be the howling of a dog

     C           G                    Cadd9   G/B     D
Or a wolf to be exact, the sound sent shivers down my back

          C              G               D    D/C
But I was drawn into the pack and before long

       G                Cadd9  G/B        D    D/C
They allowed me to join in and sing their song

            C                  G                   Cadd9  G/B     D
So from the cliffs and highest hill, yeah we would gladly get our fill

        C             G               D   D/C
Howling endlessly and shrilly at the dawn 

      G                  Cadd9   G/B        D     D/C
And I lost the taste for judging right from wrong 

        C                  G                Cadd9          G/B    D
For my flesh had turned to fur, yeah and my thoughts, they surely were

           C            G            D   D/C
turned to instinct and obedience to God

        C         G            Cadd9 G/B D
You can wear your fur like the river on fire

        C         G            Cadd9  G/B   D
But you better be sure if your makin' God a liar

      C            G              Cadd9 G/B D         
I'm a rattlesnake, babe, I'm like fu-el on fire

             C          G
So if you're gonna' get made

          Cadd9 G/B G/A G      D       D/C  D/B  D/A
Don't be afraid of what you've learned      

       G                 Cadd9 G/B  D     D/C 
On the day that I turned twen- ty-  three 

      G              Cadd9   G/B     D    D/C
I was curled up underneath a dogwood tree 

     C          G                   Cadd9 G/B  D
When suddenly a girl, with skin the color of a pearl 

         C                  G              D   D/C
Wandered aimlessly, but she didn't seem to see

        G                 Cadd9  G/B       D  D/C
She was listenin' for the angels just like me

     C                 G                   Cadd9      G/B   D
So I stood and looked about, I brushed the leaves off of my snout

           C               G                    D     D/C
And then I heard my mother shouting through the trees 

                G                 Cadd9 G/B    D     D/C 
You should have seen that girl go shaky at the knees 

     C               G               Cadd9 G/B   D
So I took her by the arm, we settled down upon a farm 

               C              G             D       D/C
And raised our children up as gently as you pleased

           C                 G                  Cadd9   G/B     D
And now my fur has turned to skin and I've been quickly ushered in 

     C               G             D    D/C
To a world that I confess I do not know

            G                Cadd9    G/B         D    D/C 
But I still dream of running careless through the snow

                C                  G                Cadd9   G/B     D
An' through the howlin' winds that blow, across the ancient distant flow

            C              G             D    D/C
It fill our bodies up like water till we know

        C         G            Cadd9 G/B D
You can wear your fur like the river on fire

        C         G            Cadd9  G/B   D
But you better be sure if your makin' God a liar

      C            G              Cadd9 G/B D         
I'm a rattlesnake, babe, I'm like fu-el on fire

             C          G
So if you're gonna' get made

          Cadd9 G/B G/A G      D       D/C  D/B  D/A
Don't be afraid of what you've learned
