{VERSE]

 Em            G/B         C         A
A lifetime ago, with frozen eyes they closed the 
door
G          D/F#          Em
Suddenly I realized what locks are for
G/B     C        A        G      D/F#
No trusting them anymore, lights are out
Em               G/B C        G
Empty the stare, innocent and unaware
            D/F#    Em             G/B
Dragged out from my home, my lair
   C          G        D/F#
Earmarked me, hurt me, burned me


[PRE-CHORUS]

C                           D                  G   
The walls around me, eyes surround me, feed my fear
      C
again
                         D              G       
I must be freed or I will die before the harvest 
        C
moon, my friend
                                        D         
I do not have another year in me, you've gotta set 
  Em
me free


[CHORUS]

                         C          G
The dream is alive, I can run up the hills every 
night
              D/F#        Em
Go around and see another side of the tree
C             G                    D/F# Em
Freedom has a meaning for me, howl with me


[VERSE]

                  G/B C         A
Fear in the dark, I advice you
                               G      D/F#
You can not see the eyes, they grow behind you
Em                G/B      C      A
It's my song they now sing to you
             G      D/F#
You stand no chance
       Em                 G/B     C        G
They'll kill for me, steal back my freedom, set me 
free 
        D/F#    Em
It's my minions versus thee
G/B       C          G         D/F#
Fiery the vengeance, hate will drain me


[PRE-CHORUS]

C                           D                  G   
The walls around me, eyes surround me, feed my fear
      C
again
                         D              G       
I must be freed or I will die before the harvest 
        C
moon, my friend
                                        D         
I do not have another year in me, you've gotta set 
  Em
me free


[CHORUS]

                         C          G
The dream is alive, I can run up the hills every 
night

Go around and see another side of the tree
     C             G                      D/F# 
All I want is to be untamed and free, howl and  
Em

                            C           G

Run around and see another side of the dream
C             G                         D/F#
Freedom has a meaning for me, you can't tame me

A                                          G  G#m
  Leave me without a guard and you feel my wrath
A                                             Bm
 What you have done to me has made me bitter 
and cruel

you,     you,    to you
