Intro:
Dm   Dm  Bb C Am
         Oh-----

Verse 1:
Dm
You were raised by wolves and voices
                                 Bb
Every night I hear them howling deep beneath your bed
             A        F   Gm  Dm
They said it all comes down to you
                                        C
You’re the daughter of silent watching stones
                                    Bb
You watch the stars hurl all their fundaments
                   A
In wonderment, at you and yours, forever asking
Dm                                     C
More. You are that space that’s in between
                                  Bb
every page, every chord and every screen
                               A
You are the driftwood and the rift,
                                        Dm
you’re the words that I promise I don’t mean
                                         C
We’re drunk but drinking -sunk but sinking-
                                       Bb
They thought us blind -we were just blinking-
                             A
All the stones and kings of old will hear us
    Dm
screaming at the cold

Pre-Chorus:
nc
Remember me I ask, remember me I sing
nc
Give me back my heart you wingless

Chorus:
Dm               Bb
Think of all the horrors that I
F
Promised you I’d bring
  Gm
I promise you, they’ll sing of every
Dm                   Bb
Time you passed your fingers through my
F
hair and called me child
Gm                            Dm
Witness me, old man, I am the Wild

Verse 2:
            Dm                         C
You are the son of every dressing up box
                        Bb
And I am Time itself, I slow to let you play
             A                            Dm
I steal the hours and turn the night into day
                                   C
Day by day oh lord three things I pray
                           Bb
That I might understand as best I can
                      A
How bold I was, could be - will be -
                        Dm
still am, by god still am
               C                   Bb
Fret not dear heart, let not them hear
                           Am
The mutterings of all your fears,
                           Dm
the fluttering of all your wings
                   Dm
Welcome to the storm, I'm thunder
Bb            -nc-
Welcome to my table, bring your hunger

Chorus:
Dm                Bb
Think of all the horrors that I
F
Promised you I’d bring
   Gm
I promise you, they’ll sing of every
Dm                    Bb
Time you passed your fingers through my
F
hair and called me child
Gm              A            Dm
Witness me old man, I am The Wild

Interlude: Am  Dm  C  Dm  Bb

Bridge:
Dm                                    Bb
Remember me, Remember me, Remember me
Dm          C             Dm
Remember me,  Remember me,   Remember Me!
-nc-
Remember me I ask. Remember me I sing

Chorus:
Dm               Bb
Think of all the horrors that I
F
Promised you I’d bring

I promise you, they’ll sing of every
Dm                    Bb

Witness me old man, I am the
Dm               Bb
Think of all the horrors that I

Promised you I’d bring
   Gm                   F
I promise you, they’ll sing of every
