                                Dire Wolf

                                                         The Grateful Dead

(C)(C)(B)(A)
   G  F  C  (C)(B)
         (A)     G
          In the timbers of Fennario
              Bb                 F
          The wolves are running round
              F
          The winter was so hard and cold
                                   G
          Froze ten feet neath the ground

                                    F
                       Don't murder me
                     G          C          Bb     F
                       I beg of you, don't murder me
                       G   F                  C
                       Ple~ease, don't murder me

          I sat down to my supper
          T'was a bottle of red whiskey
          I said my prayers and went to bed
                    (C)  (C)  (B)(Bb) Am
          That's the last they saw of me

                                    G
                       Don't murder me
                     F          C          C/E    F
                       I beg of you, don't murder me
                       G   F                  C
                       Ple~ease, don't murder me

                              (C)(B)(Bb)  Am           G
                                     When I awoke, the Dire Wolf
                                         C       Bb        F
                                     Six hundred pounds of sin
                                         F
                                     Was grinnin' at my window
                                                    (F) (Gb) G
                                     All I said was "come on in"

                                    F
                       Don't murder me
                     G          C          E      Am
                       I beg of you, don't murder me
                       G   F                  C
                       Ple~ease, don't murder me

                                     The wolf came in, I got my cards
                                     We sat down for a game
                                     I cut my deck to the Queen of Spades
                                     But the cards were all the same

                       Don't murder me
                       I beg of you, don't murder me
                       Ple~ease, don't murder me
                                 *Solo*  (1st verse & chorus)

          In the backwash of Fennario
          The black and bloody mire
          The Dire Wolf collects his due
          While the boys sing round the fire

                                    G
                       Don't murder me
                     F          C          C/E    F
                       I beg of you, don't murder me
                       G   F                  C
                       Ple~ease, don't murder me

                      (C)   (B)(A)  G
                       Don't murder me
                     F          C          E      Am
                       I beg of you, don't murder me
                       G   F                  C
                       Ple~ease, don't murder me
                       G   F                  C G C G C
                       Ple~ease, don't murder me...
