[Intro]
A Ab G E D A D A

In the timbers to Fennario,

the wolves are running 'round,

The winter was so hard and cold,

froze ten feet neath the ground.
[Chorus]

Don't murder me,
E A Ab G F#m
I beg of you, don't murder me.
E D A D A
Please, don't murder me.
[Verse 2]
A D Db E
As I sat down to my supper,
G D
twas a bottle of red whisky,
D
I said my prayers and went to bed,
A Ab G F#m
that's the last they saw of me.
[Chorus]
F#m E D
Don't murder me,
A Ab G F#m
I beg of you, don't murder me.
E D A D A
Please, don't murder me.
[Verse 3]
A Ab G F#m E
When I awoke, the Dire Wolf,
A G D
six hundred pounds of sin,
D
Was grinning at my window,
D Eb E
all I said was come on in.
[Chorus]

Don't murder me,

The wolf came in, I got my cards,
A G D
we sat down for a game.

I cut my deck to the queen of spades,
D Eb E
but the cards were all the same.
[Chorus]

Don't murder me,
E A C#7 F#m
I beg of you, don't murder me.
E D A D A
Please, don't murder me.
[Verse 5]

In the backwash of Fennario,
G D
the black and bloody mire,
D
The Dire Wolf collects his dues,
D Eb E
while the boys sing round the fire.
[Chorus]
E D
Don't murder me,
E A Ab G F#m
I beg of you, don't murder me.
E D A D A
Please, don't murder me.
