The Horror And The Wild Uke tab by The Amazing Devil

Intro: Dm-Bb-C-Am

Dm
You were raised by wolves and voices
Dm                              Bb
Every night I hear them howling deep beneath your bed
             Am
They said it all comes down to you

Dm
You’re the daughter of silent watching stones
C                                  Bb
You watch the stars hurl all their fundaments
               A                                Dm
In wonderment, at you and yours, forever asking more

Dm                                         C
You are that space that’s in between every page
every chord and every screen
Bb                            A
You are the driftwood and the rift, you’re the words
                       Dm
that I promise I don’t mean
Dm                        C
We’re drunk but drinking (sunk but sinking)
                       Bb
They thought us blind (we were just blinking)
                                             A
All the stones and kings of old will hear us screaming
       Am
at the cold

Dm
Remember me I ask, remember me I sing
                                   Dm
Give me back my heart you wingless thing

[Chorus]
Dm               Bb
Think of all the horrors that I
F
Promised you I’d bring
Gm            
I promise you, they’ll sing of every
Dm                   Bb                 F
Time you passed your fingers through my hair and
called me child
G           Gm                Dm
Witness me, old man, I am the Wild

Dm
You are the son of every dressing up box
C        Dm             Bb
And I am Time itself, I slow to let you play
            Dm
I steal the hours and turn the night into day

Dm
Day by day oh lord three things I pray
             Am            Bb
That I might understand as best I can
                Am                         C       
How bold I was, could be - will be - still am, by god

still am

Dm            C                   Bb
Fret not dear heart, let not them hear
                           Am
The mutterings of all your fears, the fluttering of
         Dm
all your wings
Dm
Welcome to the storm, I am thunder
Bb
Welcome to my table, bring your hunger

[Chorus]
Dm               Bb
Think of all the horrors that I
F
Promised you I’d bring
Gm            
I promise you, they’ll sing of every
Dm                   Bb                 F
Time you passed your fingers through my hair and
called me child
G           Gm                Dm
Witness me, old man, I am the Wild

[Bridge] Am-Dm-C-Dm
Dm
Remember me, Remember me, Remember me, Remember me

Remember me I ask. Remember me I sing

[Chorus]
Dm               Bb
Think of all the horrors that I
F
Promised you I’d bring
Gm            
I promise you, they’ll sing of every
Dm                   Bb                 F
Time you passed your fingers through my hair and
called me child
G           A                 
Witness me, old man, I am the
Dm               Bb

I promise you, they’ll sing of every
