Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

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

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

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
