[verse (1)]

D
At my gate i’ll always greet you
A D
At my door you’re welcome in
G D
There can be no transgression
A
As a means to an end

[verse (2)]

D
On the wind the wolves are howling
A D
Open arms are closed in fear
G D
Helping hands are clenched in anger
A D
Broken hearts beyond repair

[bridge]

Bm
Everything’s so great
G
Can’t get better
A D
Makes me wanna cry
Bm G
But i’ll go out howling
A D
At the moon tonight

[verse]

D
There she stands, so tall and mighty
A D
With her keen and watchful eye
G D
And the heart of a mother
A
Holding out her guiding light

D
It’s a hard road to travel
A D
It’s old rock from end to end
G D
The sun, it rises on her brow
A D
And sets upon the great expanse

[bridge]

Bm
Everything’s so great
G
Can’t get better
A D
Makes me wanna cry
Bm G
That i’ll go out howling
A D
At the moon tonight

[verse (3)]

D
There she stands, so tall and mighty
A D
Her gaze facing the east
G D
At her back our doors are closing
A
As we grin and bare our teeth

D
On the wind the wolves are howling
A D
She cries to draw them near
G D
Well turn around, turn around my darling
A D
Oh, the wolves are here

Bm G
Everything’s so great, can’t get better
A D
Makes me wanna cry
Bm G
But i’ll go out howling
A D
At the moon tonight
Bm G
Yeah, i’ll go out howling
A D
At the moon tonight
