Verse 1:
Am
Can’t you hear those wolves a-howling
Dm
At the moon so bright and wide
Am
There’s a pack of 'em a-prowling
E7
With the hunger deep inside
Am
And they’re coming for the lonely
Dm
And they’re coming for the weak
Am E7 Am
And they’re looking for the secrets that you keep
Chorus:
Dm
Oh, the wolves are at the door
Am
And I can’t take it anymore
E7
I can hear 'em scratching
Am
Through the floor
Dm
Yes, the wolves are in the yard
Am
And I’m catching my own guard
E7
And I’m praying that they’re
Am
Looking for some more
Verse 2:
Am
I have tried to run and hide
Dm
In the shadows of the pines
Am
But I can’t escape the rhythm
E7
Of those cold and ancient lines
Am
Now the teeth are getting closer
Dm
And the breath is on my neck
Am E7 Am
And my life is just a cold and hollow wreck
Chorus:
Dm
Oh, the wolves are at the door
Am
And I can’t take it anymore
E7
I can hear 'em scratching
Am
Through the floor
Dm
Yes, the wolves are in the yard
Am
And I’m catching my own guard
E7
And I’m praying that they’re
Am
Looking for some more
Outro:
E7
Yeah, I’m praying that they’re
Am
Looking for some more Am E7 Am
