E  D  A  E

        E                       D                   A
In the timbers of Fennario the wolves are running 'round.
     D                                                      E
The winter was so hard and cold froze ten feet 'neath the ground.
             D   E          A   -     C#7  - D     E      D            A
Don't murder me,  I beg of you, don't murder me, please, don't murder me.

   E                      G                      D
I sat down to my supper, 'twas a bottle of red whiskey.
                                               A        G#7-G7-F#7
I said my prayers and went to bed, that's the last they saw of me.
             E  D          A   -     C#7  - D     E      D            A
Don't murder me, I beg of you, don't murder me, please, don't murder me.

    F#m            E              A   -   G    -    D
When I awoke, the Dire Wolf, six hundred pounds of sin,
                                                    E
was grinning at my window, all I said was 'come on in'
             D   E          A   -     C#7  - F#m   E      D            A
don't murder me,  I beg of you, don't murder me, please, don't murder me.

    F#m              E                A  -     G  -  D
The Wolf came in, I got my cards, we sat down for a game
                                                                   E
I cut my deck to the Queen of Spades, but the cards were all the same
             D   E         A   -     C#7  - D     E      D            A
Don't murder me, I beg of you, don't murder me, please, don't murder me.


Solo over:  A E    (D E  A-C#7-F#m E D A)   (E D  A-C#7-F#m D E A)

        E                          D               A
In the backwash of Fennario, the black and bloody mire,
 D                                                            E
The Dire Wolf collect his due while the boys sing 'round the fire.
             D   E         A    -     C#7 - D    E      D           A
Don't murder me, I beg of you, don't murder me, please don't murder me
             E   D         A     -    C#7 - F#m  E      D            A
Don't murder me, I beg of you, don't murder me, please don't murder me
             E   D         A     -    C#7 - F#m  E      D            A
Don't murder me, I beg of you, don't murder me, please don't murder me

I play the A in open position except for the one before the halfstep 7th chords run, 
which sneaks up fast...
