I still remember that t[(D)]ime when we were dancing
We were dancing to a song that I’d heard
Your face was simple and your h[(D)]ands were naked
I was singing without knowing the words
But I started listening to the wo[(D)]lves in the timber
Wolves in the timber at night
I heard their songs when I looked in the mirror
In the howls and the moons round my eyes

So long, so high
So long, so high

(X2)

Then winter came and there was l[(D)]ittle left between us
Skin and bones of love won’t make a meal
I felt my eyes drifting [(D)]over your shoulder
There were w[(Em)]olves at the edge of the field
But I still remember that [(D)]time when we were dancing
We were dancing to a song that I’d heard
Your face was simple and your [(D)]hands were naked
I was singing without knowing the words

So long, so high
So long, so high

(X2)

Then one day I just woke up
[(D)]And the wolves were all there
Wolves in the piano
Wolves underneath the stairs
Wolves inside the hinges
[(D)]Circling round my door
At night inside the bedsprings
Clicking cross the floor
I still don’t know how they found me
I’ll n[(D)]ever know quite how
I still can’t believe they heard me
That I was howling out that loud

So long, so high
So long, so high

(X2)

(interlude, same chords)

Sometimes in the frozen n[(D)]ights I go roaming
In the bed she used to share with me
I wake in the fields
with the c[(D)]old and the lonesome
The moon’s the only face that I see
I still remember that ti[(D)]me when we were dancing
We were dancing to a song that I’d heard
Your face was simple and your h[(D)]ands were naked
I was singing without knowing the words

So long, so high
So long, so high

(X2)

(Outro, same chords, with some electric guitar noodling)
