C/G  
At my gate I'll always greet you
      G               C/G
At my door you're welcome in
          F/C      C/G
There can be no transgression
      G
As a means to an end

C/G    
On the wind the wolves are howling
G                    C/G
Open arms are closed in fear
        F/C      C/G
Helping hands are clenched in anger
       G          C/G
Broken hearts beyond repair

C/E
Everything's so great
F/C 
Can't get better
G              C/G  B
Makes me wanna cry
C/E              F/C 
That I'll go out howling
       G    C/G
At the moon tonight

C/G 
There she stands, so tall and mighty
G                          C/G
With her keen and watchful eye
        F/C      C/G 
And the heart of a mother
        G
Holding out her guiding light

C/G 
It's a hard road to travel
G                       C/G
Solid rock from end to end
    F/C           C/G
The sun, it rises on her brow
         G              C/G
And sets upon the great expanse

C/E
Everything's so great
F/C 
Can't get better
G              C/G  B
Makes me wanna cry
C/E              F/C 
That I'll go out howling
       G    C/G
At the moon tonight

C/G 
There she stands, so tall and mighty
         G          C/G
Her gaze facing the east
       F/C                C/G
At her back our doors are closing
      G 
As we grin and bare our teeth

       C/G
On the wind the wolves are howling
          G       C/G
She cries to draw near
     F/C          C/G
Turn around, turn around my darling
        G          C/G
Oh, the wolves are here

C/E
Everything's so great
F/C 
Can't get better
G              C/G  B
Makes me wanna cry
C/E              F/C 
That I'll go out howling
       G    C/G
At the moon tonight
     C/E         F/C            G    C/G
Yeah I'll go out howling at the moon tonight
