Verse
Dm C A#
My land it was rich, but I wouldn't work it
Dm C A#
I guess I made a shrew of my wife
Dm C A#
My duty clear, I could always find some way to shirk it
Dm C A#
I dreamed away the best years of my life
Dm C A#
Seems like only this morning, I went up into the mountain
Dm C A#
No word of warning, just her usual curse
Dm C A#
I hated the house, with all her nagging and shouting
Dm C A#
But to be in this strange world was a thousand times worse
[Chorus]
F A#
Where are the men
C F
that I used to sport with?
F A#
What has become
C F
of my beautiful town?
F A#
Wolf, my old friend
C F
Even you don't know me
F A#
This must be the end
C F
My house is tumbled down
[Verse 2]
Dm C A#
He called me by name, he bought me that cheaply
Dm C A#
He called me by name, I didn't know what to think
Dm C A#
I watched their loud games, and oh, I drink deeply
Dm C A#
Though no-one had ever asked me to drink
Dm C A#
And you know that stolen liquor, it was sweeter than whiskey
Dm C A#
Many times quicker, just to put me to sleep
Dm C A#
That drinking with strangers can be very risky
Dm C A#
My sleep it was long, it was twenty years deep
[Chorus]
F A#
Where are the men
C F
that I used to sport with?
F A#
What has become
C F
of my beautiful town?
F A#
Wolf, my old friend
C A#
Even you don't know me
F A#
This must be the end
C F
My house is tumbled down
