KEEP THE WOLVES AWAY CHORDS

[Start]

[Intro]
C#m E B A C#m E B A
           


[Verse]
     C#m                                   
Took my first breath where the muddy Brazos
E                             
Spills into the Gulf of Mexico
          B                                   
Where the skyline's colored by chemical plants
             A                                    
That put the bread on the table of the workin' man
          C#m                                 
Where the workin' man does his best to provide
E                                     
Safety and shelter for kids and a wife
B                                    
Giving a little of his soul every day
A                                      
Makin' overtime to keep the wolves away

[Verse]
      C#m                                 
I was barely thirteen when the company men
E                            
Tried to dig my daddy's grave
B                                       
It happened on a Frenchowned tanker ship
         A                          
Spillin' poison in the Galveston Bay
          C#m                                      
Where the liquid fire filled his lungs and his eyes
E                        
Silenced any mortal cries
B                                        
Cold in the grave but death stinging pain
   A                                       
He fought like hell to keep the wolves away

[Verse]
        C#m                                 
For the next few years Dad was sick as a dog
       E                                   
But he made recovery just to spite the odds
B                                           
The settlement came and we moved out of town
          A                                   
Where the sky isn't heavy with refinery clouds
C#m                                                      
Yeah he's still alive he's doing good he's in his fifties
        E                                                
But the money's running out and he's pinching for pennies
       B                                     
So I'm going for broke with every song I play
       A                                       
'Cause now it's my turn to keep the wolves away
