                  Voxhaul Broadcast - You Are The Wilderness
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Matt Benecke
Email: lpwjbklyn@gmail.com

This is arguably the best song featured on The Walking Dead Soundtrack: Vol. 1
as well as the best performance from season 3 of The Talking Dead.

Their website can be found here: http://www.voxhaulbroadcast.com/

There are a few slight variations between the acoustic version of the song and
the recorded one.  The most important one occurs at the end of each line of
verse.  In the acoustic version, there's a two-strum of a Am chord but on the
recorded version it's a brief hammer-on riff.  Since this is meant to be a
chord tablature, I'll go with the acoustic version but I will also include the
riff variation at the bottom for anyone who is interested.

Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)

Chords Used:

Em   022000

Am   x02210

C/G  332010

Stood at the edge of the valley
Em (022000@1)                        AmLooked (x02210@1)at the ground below
Em (022000@1)                   AmOh, (x02210@1)I was surrounded
Em (022000@1)                         AmThere's (x02210@1)nowhere left to go

Em (022000@1)                                  AmI (x02210@1)heard the wind down beneath my feet
Em (022000@1)                                AmI (x02210@1)felt the earth shake inside of me
Em (022000@1)                              AmI (x02210@1)run forever but I won't get far
Em (022000@1)                                    Am'Cause (x02210@1)if I don't have you I will starve

*NOTE: The original recording follows a chromatic walk down from the 7th
fret of the A string down to the 1st and then back to the 2nd over the
lyrics "For you" (repeated twice during the walk down). The acoustic
version loops back to the intro riff

Verse 2 (2:34 - 3:22)

Lyrics

Stood at the edge of the valley
Looked at the ground below
Oh, I was surrounded
There's nowhere left to go

I heard the wind down beneath my feet
I felt the earth shake inside of me
I run forever but I won't get far
'Cause if I don't have you I will starve

There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart
For you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart
For you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart
For you
For you
For you

Was it cold desperation
That let the fire go out?
Or was it cold desperation
'Cause I let it burn for miles?

I am an animal for what I need
You are the wilderness inside me
I run forever but I won't get far
'Cause if I don't have you I will starve

There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart
For you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart
For you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart
For you
For you
For you

You are the wilderness
You are the wilderness
You are the wilderness
You are You are the one You are the one
