[Verse 1]
F#m
Our head was warm,
My skin was soaked.
F#m
I called your name 'til the fever broke.
When I awoke
F#m
The moon still hung.
The night so black that the darkness hummed
F#m F#m D

[Verse 2]
F#m
I raised myself.
My legs were weak.
F#m
I prayed my mind be good to me.
An awful noise
F#m
Filled the air.
I heard a scream in the woods somewhere.

[Verse 3]
F#m
A woman's voice!
I quickly ran
F#m
Into the trees with empty hands.
A fox it was,
F#m
He shook afraid.
I spoke no words, no sound he made.

[Verse 4]
F#m
His bone exposed,
His hind was lame.
F#m
I raised a stone to end his pain.
What caused the wound?
F#m
How large the teeth?
I saw new eyes were watching me.

[Verse 5]
F#m
The creature lunged.
I turned and ran
F#m
To save a life I didn't have.
Dear, in the chase
F#m
There as I flew
Forgot all prayers of joining you.

[Verse 6]
F#m
I clutched my life
And wished it kept.
F#m
My dearest love I'm not done yet
How many years
F#m
I know I'll bear
D
I found something in the woods somewhere.
