-> Gm -> Ab [Intro] Gm Ab [Verse 1]
Bb                         Gm Ab
It was many years ago now

Bb                         Gm Ab
I really can't be sure

Bb                         Gm Ab
cause when it all began then

Bb                               Gm Ab
I heard that knock upon my door.
[Chorus]
                   F                      Eb
It's the Wolfman's Brother, the Wolfman's Brother
comin' down on me. Bb Gm Ab x2 [Verse 2]
Bb                         Gm Ab
The telephone was ringing

Bb                         Gm Ab
That's when I handed it to Liz

Bb                         Gm Ab
She said, "This isn't who it would be

Bb                         Gm Ab
If it wasn't who it is"
[Chorus]
                  F                      Eb
It's the Wolfman's Brother, the Wolfman's Brother
comin' down on me. Bb Gm Ab x2 [Verse 3]
Bb                         Gm Ab
So I might be on a side street

Bb                         Gm Ab
Or a stairway to the stars

Bb                         Gm Ab
I hear the high pitched cavitation

Bb                         Gm Ab
Of propellers from afar
[Chorus]
                 F                      Eb
It's the Wolfman's Brother, the Wolfman's Brother

                 F                      Eb
It's the Wolfman's Brother, the Wolfman's Brother

                 F                      Eb
It's the Wolfman's Brother, the Wolfman's Brother
comin' down on me. Bb Gm Ab x2 [Bridge]
Gm                           Ab
So in meaningless excitement.

Gm                      Ab
through the total sound.

Gm                                    Ab
It's like a cross between a hurricane.

Gm                                    Ab
It's like a ship that's running ground
[Chorus]
                 F                      Eb
It's the Wolfman's Brother, the Wolfman's Brother

                 F                      Eb
It's the Wolfman's Brother, the Wolfman's Brother

                 F                      Eb
It's the Wolfman's Brother, the Wolfman's Brother

Eb
comin' down on...
comin' down on me. Bb Gm Ab x2 [Outro] This riff is underlined by the main grove Bb -> Gm -> Ab A simple run down the pentatonic scale, B means bend
