Dire Wolfv2

I took the other tab on this website and tweaked it a little to try & get closer

to this acoustic version of Dire Wolf: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6zc1AaApNU&fmt=18

Dire Wolf by The Grateful Dead

Standard Tuning

Intro:

In the timbers of Fennario,

The wolves are running 'round.

The winter was so hard and cold,

Froze ten feet 'neath the ground.

Don't murder me,

C C* C F C* = open D on 4th string

I beg of you, don't murder me.

Please, don't murder me.

I sat down to my supper,

'Twas a bottle of red whisky.

I said my prayers and went to bed,

That's the last they saw of me.

Don't murder me,

I beg of you, don't murder me.

Please, don't murder me.

When I awoke, the Dire Wolf,

Six hundred pounds of sin,

Was grinning at my window,

All I said was "Come on in".

Don't murder me,

I beg of you, don't murder me.

Please, don't murder me.

The Wolf came in, I got my cards,

We sat down for a game.

I cut my deck to the Queen of Spades,

But the cards were all the same.

Don't murder me,

I beg of you, don't murder me.

Please, don't murder me.

[[solo]]

In the backwash of Fennario,

The black and bloody mire,

The Dire Wolf collects his due,

While the boys sing 'round the fire.

Don't murder me,

I beg of you, don't murder me.

Please, don't murder me.

Don't murder me,

I beg of you, don't murder me.

Please, don't murder me.

Please, don't murder me.
