[Intro] Dm C Bb Dm C Bb [Verse 1]
Dm                      C
If you could only see the beast you've made of me

Bb
I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free

Dm                     C
Screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart

Bb
Drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart
[Pre-Chorus]
C                                         Am
My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in

Bb
You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to howl

C                                      Am
My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in

You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to
[Chorus]

Howl, howl
[Verse 2]
Dm                            C
Now there's no holding back, I'm making to attack

Bb
My blood is singing with your voice, I want to pour it out

Dm                            C
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound

Bb
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallow'ed ground
[Pre-Chorus]
C                              Am             Bb
Like some child possessed, the beast howls in my veins

          C                                      Bmaj7
I want to find you, tear out all of your tenderness

Howl, howl
[Post Chorus]

Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers

Dm           C6                  Bbmaj9
Starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters

Dsus4             Dm
Hunters, hunters, hunters, hunters

Dm
Hunters, hunters, hunters, hunters
[Bridge]

The fabric of your flesh, pure as a wedding dress

Until I wrap myself inside your arms I cannot rest

Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers

Dm           C6                  Bbmaj9
Starts so soft and sweet and turns them to hunters

Dm            C6                 Bbmaj9
A man who's pure of heart and says his prayers by night

Dm            C6             Bbmaj9
May still become a wolf when the autumn moon is bright
[Outro]
