[Chorus]
C F
Where are the men
G C
that I used to sport with?
F
What has become
G C
of my beautiful town?
C F
Wolf, my old friend
G C
Even you don’t know me
C F
This must be the end
G C
My house is tumbled down
[Verse 1]
Am G F
My land it was rich, but I wouldn’t work it
Am G F
I guess I made a shrew of my wife
Am G F
My duty clear, I could always find some way to shirk it
Am G F
I dreamed away the best years of my life
Am G F
Seems like only this morning, I went up into the mountain
Am G F
No word of warning, just her usual curse
Am G F
I hated the house, with all her nagging and shouting
Am G F
But to be in this strange world was a thousand times worse
[Chorus]
C F
Where are the men
G C
that I used to sport with?
C F
What has become
G C
of my beautiful town?
C F
Wolf, my own friend
G C
Even you don’t know me
C F
This must be the end
G F
My house is tumbled down
[Verse 2]
Am G F
He called me by name, he bought me that cheaply
Am G F
He called me by name, I didn’t know what to think
Am G F
I watched their loud games, and oh, I drink deeply
Am G F
Though no-one had ever asked me to drink
Am G F
And you know that stolen liquor, it was sweeter than whiskey
Am G F
Many times quicker, just to put me to sleep
Am G F
That drinking with strangers can be very risky
Am G F
My sleep it was long, it was twenty years deep
[Chorus]
C F
Where are the men
G C
that I used to sport with?
C F
What has become
G C
of my beautiful town?
C F
Wolf, my own friend
G F
Even you don’t know me
C F
This must be the end
G C
My house is tumbled down
