Wild Wood Chords

(ver. 1)
The Handsome Family
A

            A    E              A
Give me a swamp,   a deep dark bog
             D                                A
Where I can lose my way in pools of slippery mud
                    D                         A
Give me cold, cold rain, a cloud of stinging bugs
                                E                      A
Deadly nightshade, poison oak, give me the wild, wild wood

     E         D                 A
The wild, the wild, wild, wild wood
     Bm        D                 A
The wild, the wild, wild, wild wood

                  A    E                    A
We can dress in skins,    wrap our feet in bark
              D                           A
And you can growl at me or hit me with a rock
                  D                         A
When you want to say, "I love you," in the dark
                        E           A
And I will bark like a dog in your arms

        E         D                 A
In the wild, the wild, wild, wild wood
     Bm        D                 A
The wild, the wild, wild, wild wood

            A         E     A             D                 A

               A   E                     A
We can make a god     out of sticks and bones
           D                                A
Or we can pray to the trees or pray to the sun
                    D                     A
And our eyes will shine when we start to sing
                           E                 A
With the hungry wolves outside our freezing cave

        E         D                 A
In the wild, the wild, wild, wild wood
     Bm        D                 A
The wild, the wild, wild, wild wood
