Capo on 3rd fret

GIf (320003@1)the elephants have past lives
        C2Yet (x32030@1)are destined to always remember
        Em7
It's no wonder how they scream
             C2Like (x32030@1)you and I, they must have some temper
        Am7And (x02010@1)I'm dreaming of them on the plains
GDirtying (320003@1)up their beds
Am7Watching (x02010@1)for some sign of rain
   GTo (320003@1)cool their hot heads
        Em7
And how dare that you send me that card
         G (320003@1)                  C2When (x32030@1)I'm doing all that I can do
        G (320003@1)             Em7
You are forcing me to remember
           C2 (x32030@1)       D (xx0232@1)         Em (022000@1) 
When all I want is to just forget you

GIf (320003@1)the tiger shall protect her young
     C2Then (x32030@1)tell me how did you slip by
       Em7
All my instincts have failed me for once
            C2I (x32030@1)must have somehow slept the whole night
        Am7And (x02010@1)I'm dreaming of them with their kill
GTearing (320003@1)it all apart
Am7Blood (x02010@1)dripping from their lips
GTeeth (320003@1)sinking into heart
        Em7
And how dare that you say you will call
         G (320003@1)                       C2When (x32030@1)you know I need some peace of mind
       G (320003@1)                        Em7
If you had to take sides with the animals
          C2 (x32030@1)    D (xx0232@1)        EmWon't (022000@1)you do it with one who is kind

Instrumental: D    Am    D

GIf (320003@1)the hawks in the trees need the dead
          C2If (x32030@1)you're living, you don't stand a chance
      Em7   
For a time though you share the same bed
          C2There (x32030@1)are only two ends to this dance
        Am7You (x02010@1)can flee with your wounds just in time
   GOr (320003@1)lie there as he feeds
Am7Watching (x02010@1)yourself ripped to shreds
GLaughing (320003@1)as you bleed
       Em7
So for those of you falling in love
        G (320003@1)                         C2Keep (x32030@1)it kind, keep it good, keep it right
          G (320003@1)                  Em7
Throw yourself in the midst of danger
         C2 (x32030@1)    D (xx0232@1)     EmBut (022000@1)keep one eye open at night
