C F Am G Eb F C F Eb
[Verse 1]
C F
In pouring rain
Am G Eb F C F Eb
The killer wanders the wet riverbank
C F
In sneaker tracks
Am G Eb F C F Eb
To lead him back to the folks he'd chased away
[Chorus 1]

As foxes dodge his soles
Am F C
And root through rabbit holes
Am F C G Am
Underneath as nesting dolls

The tender flesh to carry home
C F Am G Eb F C F Eb
[Verse 2]
C F
A trail of blood
Am G Eb F C F Eb
Crimson and warm splattered cross the ragged brush
C F Am G Eb F C F Eb
"Oh little fox, you got caught in the teeth of a hunter's trap."
[Chorus 2]
Am F C
And tore through skin and bone
Am F C
Where iron teeth take hold
Am F C G Am
And underneath as nesting dolls
F Dm
The tender flesh to carry home
[Outro]

As you decide through killer eyes

Taken by your trembling trigger hand
Em F G Am
In gentle jaws, the barrel of your .22
F Dm F Dm
