Wolves

D                D/F#  G     
January's always bitter   but
Asus4     A         D    D/F#  
 Lord this one beats all
G  Asus4  A

D                       D/F#   G
The wind ain't quit for weeks 
                              A  
now  and the drifts are ten feet 
Asus4  A/E
tall
       G                        A 
I been all night drivin' heifers  
                   Dsus4 D  Gm  
closer in to lower ground
Gm/A  Gm

       D                        A7
Then I spent the mornin' thinkin' 
'bout the ones the wolves pulled 
D   D/F#  G
down

[Verse 2]
Charlie Barton and his family 
stopped today to say goodbye
He said the bank was takin' over, 
the last few years were just too dry
Continues after the ad
And I promised that I'd visit when 
they found a place in town
Then I spent a long time thinkin' 
'bout the ones the wolves pull down

[Chorus]
G           A       D        G  
Lord please shine a light of 
  Em            A             D  
hope   on those of us   who fall 
D7
behind
    G       A       D      G    
And when we stumble in the snow 
Em                  D/F#   
  could you help us up  while 
                Asus4 A
there's still time

[Verse 3]
D                        D/F#    
Well, I don't mean to be 
       G         Asus4     A   D 
complainin' Lord, you've always 
  D/F# Asus4  A
seen me through
D                       D/F#   G
And I know you got your reasons 
                             A  
 for each and every thing you do
Asus4  A/E

      G                       
But tonight outside my window   
A                             Bm  
there's a lonesome mournful sound
 Gm Gm/A Gm

      D                            
And I just can't keep from thinkin'
A7                               
  'bout the ones the wolves pull 
D    G
down

Oh Lord keep me from bein'  the
