A A/D A E E7 And I lost the taste for judging right from wrong. D A For my flesh had turned to fur, yeah A/D A E E7 And my thoughts, they surely were turned to A A/D A E E7 instinct and obedience to God. A A/D E E7 X2 Chorus D A You can wear your fur A/D A E like the river on fire. E7 D A But you better be sure A/D A E if your makin' God a liar. E7 D A I'm a rattlesnake, babe, A/D A E I'm like fuel on fire. E7 D A So if you're gonna' get made, A/D A D A E E7 don't be afraid of what you've learned. EAA/D A/D A E/D On the day that I turned 23, A A/D A E I was curled up underneath a dogwood tree. D A When suddenly a girl A/D A E with skin the color of a pearl, D wandered aimlessly, A E but she didn't seem to see. A A/D A E She was listenin' for the angels just like me. D A So I stood and looked about. A/D A E I brushed the leaves off of my snout. D A E And then I heard my mother shouting through the trees. A A/D A E You should have seen that girl go shaky at the knees. D A So I took her by the arm A/D A E we settled down upon a farm. D And raised our children up as A E gently as you pleased. A A/D E E7 X2 D A And now my fur has turned to skin. A/D A E And I've been quickly ushered in A A/D A E to a world that I confess I do not know. A A/D A E But I still dream of running careless through the snow. D A An' through the howlin' winds that blow, A/D A E across the ancient distant flow, A A/D A E E7 it fill our bodies up like water till we know. A A/D A E E7 2x Chorus
