Chords

[Intro] C Am F (2x) [Verse 1]
       C                 G
Being wiry and thinking loudly

           F      Dm               C    (Csus4 C)
About the things sent to make you move

           C                         G
You can't help it, there's no one in this world

          F      Dm              C    (Csus4 C)
Knows you just, just the way you do
[Chorus]
 C/B        Am       G          F
So we keep darting through the holes

        C              G
As the hunter and the fox

         F          Dm     C    (Csus4 C)
Run the gauntlet's savage road

 C/B        Am       G          F
So we keep darting through the holes

        C              G
As the hunter and the fox

         F          Dm     C    (Csus4 C)
Run the gauntlet's savage road
[Verse 2]
          C                 G
Winter's heavy and partly cloudy

                  F           Dm                 C    (Csus4 C)
And the snowfall leaves the tracks that catch a few

           C                          G
if you're wiley, you will leave them lying

          F             Dm                C    (Csus4 C)
Snared up in the traps that they set for you
[Chorus 2]
   C/B      Am    G     F
And it's an evergreen affair

    C                     G
As temptation taunts the fox

          F         Dm               C    (Csus4 C)
Into the hunter's, hunter's waiting lair

   C/B      Am    G     F
And it's an evergreen affair

    C                     G
As temptation taunts the fox

          F         Dm               C    (Csus4 C)
Into the hunter's, hunter's waiting lair
[Bridge]
         Am                           D7
And for mile after mile you'll never see me tire

        G                       C
You'll never see me slow down, for a while

      Am        F               C    (Csus4 C)
Cause I am the fox, like it or not

    Am                            D7
I'm always gonna be there running over the rock

G                    C          C/B
Yes I am the fox, a fascinating cross

    Am          F                  C
Of sharp as a whip and tough as an ox

G             F
Yes I am the fox
C [Verse 3]
               C                   G
It may sound crazy but it's often lonely

                  F               Dm                  C      (Csus4 C)
And the restless heart should be captured once in a while

             C                        G
Then you can use them, and you often fool them

        F          Dm        C    (Csus4 C)
Into believing whatever you desire
[Chorus 3]
              Am       G         F
So I'll keep moving through the night

     C              G
The hunter and the hunted

          F    Dm          C    (Csus4 C)
On their des, designated flights

              Am       G         F
So I'll keep moving through the night

     C              G
The hunter and the hunted

          F    Dm          C    (Csus4 C)
On their des, designated flights
[Bridge]

You'll never see me slow down, for a while

      Am        F               C    (Csus4 C)
Cause I am the fox, like it or not

    Am                            D7
I'm always gonna be there running over the rock

G                    C          C/B
Yes I am the fox, a fascinating cross

    Am          F                  C
Of sharp as a whip and tough as an ox

G             F
Yes I am the fox
C [Chorus]
 C/B        Am       G          F
So we keep darting through the holes

        C              G
As the hunter and the fox

         F          Dm     C    (Csus4 C)
Run the gauntlet's savage road
[Harmonica Solo] Am G F C G F Dm C [Chorus 3]

The hunter and the hunted

          F    Dm          C    (Csus4 C)
