[C]I still remember that time when we were dancing
We were [Dm7]dancing to a song that I'd hea[F]rd
[F]Your face was simple and your hands were naked
I was [Dm7]singing without knowing the wor[F]ds
[C]But I started listening to the wolves in the timber
[Dm7]Wolves in the timber at nig[F]ht
[C]I heard their songs when I looked in the mirror
In the [Dm7]howls and the moons round my [F]eyes
[C]So long, so high
[Dm7]So long, [F]so high
[C]So long, so high
[Dm7]So long[F]
Then winter came and there was little left between us
Skin and bones of love won't make a meal
I felt my eyes drifting over your shoulder
There were wolves at the edge of the field
But I still remember that time when we were dancing
We were dancing to a song that I'd heard
Your face was simple and your hands were naked
I was singing without knowing the words
So long, so high
So long, so high
Then one day I just woke up
And the wolves were all there
Wolves in the piano
Wolves underneath the stairs
Wolves inside the hinges
Circling round my door
At night inside the bedsprings
Clicking cross the floor
I still don't know how they found me
I'll never know quite how
I still can't believe they heard me
That I was howling out that loud
So long, so high
So long, so high
(interlude, same chords)
At times in the frozen nights I go roaming
In the bed she used to share with me
I wake in the fields
with the cold and the lonesome
The moon's the only face that I see
I still remember that time when we were dancing
We were dancing to a song that I'd heard
Your face was simple and your hands were naked
I was singing without knowing the words
So long, so high
So long, so high
