[Verse]
Yeah, when GI was only Cadd9se-   G/Bven- Dteen D/C

It turned Gout to be the Cadd9howling G/Bof a DdogD/C  
Or a Cwolf to be eGxact, the sound sent Cadd9shivers G/Bdown my Dback
But I was Cdrawn into the Gpack and before DlongD/C  
They alGlowed me to join Cadd9in and G/Bsing their DsongD/C  
So from the Ccliffs and highest Ghill, yeah we would Cadd9gladly G/Bget our Dfill
Howling Cendlessly and Gshrilly at the dDawn D/C  
And I Glost the taste for Cadd9judging G/Bright from Dwrong D/C  
For my fClesh had turned to Gfur, yeah and my Cadd9thoughts, they G/Bsurely Dwere
turned to iCnstinct and oGbedience to GDodD/C  
  G   Cadd9   G/B    D    D/CX2
[Chorus]
You can Cwear your Gfur like the Cadd9river G/Bon fDire
But you Cbetter be Gsure if your Cadd9makin' G/BGod a Dliar
I'm a Crattlesnake, Gbabe, I'm like Cadd9fu-el G/Bon fDire
So if you're Cgonna' get Gmade
Don't be aCadd9fraid G/Bof wG/Ahat Gyou've Dlearned      D/C  D/B  D/A  
[Verse]
On the Gday that I turned Cadd9twen- G/Bty-  Dthree D/C  
I was Gcurled up underCadd9neath a G/Bdogwood Dtree D/C  
When Csuddenly a Ggirl, with skin the Cadd9color G/Bof a Dpearl 
Wandered Caimlessly, but she Gdidn't seem to DseeD/C  
She was Glistenin' for the Cadd9angels G/Bjust like DmeD/C  
So I Cstood and looked aGbout, I brushed the Cadd9leaves off G/Bof my Dsnout
And then I Cheard my mother Gshouting through the Dtrees D/C  
You should have Gseen that girl go Cadd9shaky G/Bat the Dknees D/C  
So I Ctook her by the Garm, we settled Cadd9down uG/Bpon a Dfarm 
And raised our Cchildren up as Ggently as you DpleasedD/C

And now my Cfur has turned to Gskin and I've been Cadd9quickly G/Bushered Din 
To a Cworld that I conGfess I do not DknowD/C  
But I still Gdream of running Cadd9careless G/Bthrough the DsnowD/C  
An' through the Chowlin' winds that Gblow, across the Cadd9ancient G/Bdistant Dflow

  G   Cadd9   G/B    D    D/CX2
[Chorus]
You can Cwear your Gfur like the Cadd9river G/Bon fDire

[Verse]

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

Yeah, when I was only se- ven- teen

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

I could hear the angels whis- per- ing

C G Cadd9 G/B D

So I drove into the woods and wandered aimlessly about

C G D D/C

Until I heard my mother shouting through the fog

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

It turned out to be the howling of a dog

C G Cadd9 G/B D

Or a wolf to be exact, the sound sent shivers down my back

C G D D/C

But I was drawn into the pack and before long

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

They allowed me to join in and sing their song

C G Cadd9 G/B D

So from the cliffs and highest hill, yeah we would gladly get our fill

C G D D/C

Howling endlessly and shrilly at the dawn

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

And I lost the taste for judging right from wrong

C G Cadd9 G/B D

For my flesh had turned to fur, yeah and my thoughts, they surely were

C G D D/C

turned to instinct and obedience to God

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

[Chorus]

C G Cadd9 G/B D

You can wear your fur like the river on fire

C G Cadd9 G/B D

But you better be sure if your makin' God a liar

C G Cadd9 G/B D

I'm a rattlesnake, babe, I'm like fu-el on fire

C G

So if you're gonna' get made

Cadd9 G/B G/A G D D/C D/B D/A

Don't be afraid of what you've learned

[Verse]

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

On the day that I turned twen- ty- three

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

I was curled up underneath a dogwood tree

C G Cadd9 G/B D

When suddenly a girl, with skin the color of a pearl

C G D D/C

Wandered aimlessly, but she didn't seem to see

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

She was listenin' for the angels just like me

C G Cadd9 G/B D

So I stood and looked about, I brushed the leaves off of my snout

C G D D/C

And then I heard my mother shouting through the trees

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

You should have seen that girl go shaky at the knees

C G Cadd9 G/B D

So I took her by the arm, we settled down upon a farm

C G D D/C

And raised our children up as gently as you pleased

[Instrumental]

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

[Verse]

C G Cadd9 G/B D

And now my fur has turned to skin and I've been quickly ushered in

C G D D/C

To a world that I confess I do not know

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

But I still dream of running careless through the snow

C G Cadd9 G/B D

An' through the howlin' winds that blow, across the ancient distant flow

C G D D/C

It fill our bodies up like water till we know

G Cadd9 G/B D D/C

[Chorus]

C G Cadd9 G/B D

You can wear your fur like the river on fire

C G Cadd9 G/B D

But you better be sure if your makin' God a liar

C G Cadd9 G/B D

I'm a rattlesnake, babe, I'm like fu-el on fire

C G

So if you're gonna' get made

Cadd9 G/B G/A G D D/C D/B D/A

Don't be afraid of what you've learned
