Phosphorescent “Wolves” Capo 6 Relative to capo: G Am C G Mama there’s wolves in the house Mama they won’t let me out Mama they’re mating at night Mama they won’t make nice They’re pacing and glowing bright Their faces all snowy and white Bury their paws in the stone And make for my heart as their home Chorus: Em D C They tumble and fight, and they’re beautiful On the hilltops at night, they are beautiful Blazing with light, is the whitest and the tallest and the biggest one She’s muscled and fine, when she runs G Am C G They’re tearing up holes in the house They’re tearing their claws in the ground They’re staring with blood in their mouths Mama they won’t let me out Chorus Am C G Mama there’s wolves in the house Mama I tried to put them out And mama I know you’re too wise To wait ‘til those wolves make nice
