G Bm E Bm G
..The ones who seek justice, will pray for it all their lives
Bm A E G
They can and they will skin us all one day, oh can you hear them cries?
Bm A D G
As far as the man can run from us we're following the trail of blood
Bm E F#
So hunt my young ones..
Bm (D.. A..)
..I have always known the storm would come, Listen now my young ones..
(D.. A..)
This not a story I tell of midnight, moon and sun
A D
Are you ready to walk the forbidden road
E G
Learn again what we tried to forget
A Bm
The dark can now take over you
(Bm) (D.. A..)
We have a common past, an ancient bond the people once broke..
(D.. A..)
We would only take what we need; They would harvest our weak
A D
But they hunted us all; We ended the last of them
E G
Thus far, ten lifetimes ago
A F#
In hopes of healing the sore ..But the war still went on
G A
Preying for the moon, hiding for the day
D(M7) Bm A G
These might be our..... last times..
A F#
I ain't gonna see you taken away
G A
Heading for the dawn of our way of life
D (M7) Bm A G
You're welcome to give it your best try
A F# Bm A Bm
Look me in the eyes, oh wolver, this ain't your fairy tale..
Bm (D.. A..)
..It took us many years to teach them.. How to cry wolf..
(D.. A..)
We made the people serve the purpose ..Those ignorant fools (My young ones!)
G A D
..Teach the ones below you something you've learned
E G
And learn from the ones above you
A F#
Fear is your deepest wisdom ..For these last days
G A
Preying for the moon, hiding for the day
D(M7) Bm A G
These might be our..... last times..
A F#
I ain't gonna see you taken away
G A
Heading for the dawn of our way of life

They don't fear the wolf, but the wild within

No glory to the way this must end

This is a story I told ..unfolding before you
