Manchester Orchestra – The Wolf (Guitar)

             A                                G#m
Said, "In truth I don't really want to talk about it"

              C#m
Christmas lights dangled sadly from the table in the operating room

A                               G#m
Last I heard you're an addict about it

        C#m
Full of rage and Corona

                                        A
Trying to blow the birthday kid candles out

                        G#m        C#m
Trap doors and the retaliator lead out

                                                    A
To the field where our extended family buried their lies

                                         G#m
If you're going, bring some faith and a flashlight

       C#m
Follow signs that read

               A                               G#m
Now there's something to say for the art of confusion

           C#m                                                   A
I got the courage to enquire where your body traveled all of the time

                               G#m          C#m
"I gotta climb out of this elevator, hadn't moved me once yet

                                        A
Do I expect that it should really start now?"

                              G#m
The waitress oversees you levitating

         C#m                                                      A
Couldn't think it to words and watched your body lift up into the sky

                                 G#m
Everyone there was just in awe about it

       C#m
Seen a miracle and drank away the thought from our minds

          C#m      E
There was you and me

    A             C#m
And nothing in-between

      C#m           E
It's right and wrong

     A             E F#m
Goes on and on and on

A            E
 This is the wave that you could never conquer

A            E                          B       A
 Losing the smallest piece of truth we used to know

             C#m
I wasn't prepared to embark with the wolf of the mountain

A            E                                C#m
 It wasn't a place that we could call our own

       A                                         G#m
Now I don't want to seem like it's split at the seams

         C#m
See the pain on the wall? See the blood in the street?

          A                                           G#m
There is nothing you've got when you die that you keep

           C#m
You were all that you were, were you all you could be?

          A                                   G#m
In the blink of an eye there's a hole in your belly

      C#m
Your body recoils ironically into the family planning aisle

A                                    G#m
I overhear, "I don't know where I'm going

     C#m
I'm going anyway

C#m     E      A           C#m
You and me and nothing in-between

     C#m          E        A             E F#m
It's right and wrong, goes on and on and on

    C#m        E      A              C#m
The truth for me is grasping at the seam

    C#m     E          A               E F#m
So truthfully, do you want to die for me?

A            E
 This is the wave that you could never conquer

A            E                          B       A
 Losing the smallest piece of truth we used to know

             C#m
I wasn't prepared to embark with the wolf of the mountain

A            E                                C#m
 It wasn't a place that we could call our own
