[Verse]
E
My brother and I built dens at night
E
Out in the pines as it grew thicker over time
            Ab
We took our turns
       C#m        B        A     E
And we learnt to love our little minds
E
We walked into the wilderness
E                          Ab
Bearing the courage of the Wilderman
     C#m                      B
They hide in the night in the trees
     A          E
With silhouette figures
Ab         C#m          B     A  E
Shapes and shadows they start to surround
Ab           C#m              B        A        E
We shine our torches and made monsters with our hands
Ab         C#m               B           A      E
We weren't afraid because we taught them how to dance
C#m       B            A      E
You're so blind to our way of life

[Chorus]
Ab C#m            B     E
Oh carry all your heavy loads
Ab    C#m           B       E
Oh is life a burden on your backbones
   C#m     B                   A                 E
If so take control and build a hill beneath your home
          C#m        B              A              E
Where the gravity is weaker and the stars give you hope
       C#m             B     A            E
If the lines upon your hands predict this soul
C#m        B        C#m        B       E
Why are we waiting? Why are we wasting time?

[Verse]
E
My brother and I, we used our minds
E
We set up traps to catch the beasts before they bite
               Ab
They come from under
    C#m         B        A          E
And they try to take you from your life
E
We follow footprints, down to the lake
E
We lost the scent, two shadows cast from outer space
              Ab
We passed our curfew
C#m             B      A        E
But we knew the Wilderman would wait
Ab          C#m        B      A   E
Strength in numbers we formed our parade
Ab     C#m            B         A    E
Over a hilltop and we found him in a cave
Ab        C#m              B           A  E
We didn't fight because we taught them to behave
C#m       B              A          E
You're so blind when you close your eyes

[Chorus]
Ab C#m       B        E
Oh follow us into the unknown
Ab         C#m            B    E
Oh are you wild or do you walk alone
   C#m     B                   A                 E
If so take control and build a hill beneath your home
          C#m        B              A              E
Where the gravity is weaker and the stars give you hope
       C#m             B     A            E
If the lines upon your hands predict this soul
C#m        B        A          B       E
Why are we waiting? Why are we wasting time?

[Verse]
C#m         B       A          E
Further and further watch them run
   C#m        B        A          E
We proved you wrong we proved you wrong
    C#m        B           A        E
You lived each day in your cowardly ways
    C#m        B      A          E
You lived each day to deliver me pain

[Chorus]
Ab  C#m           B     E
Oh carry all your heavy loads
Ab    C#m           B       E
Oh is life a burden on your backbones
   C#m     B                   A                 E
If so take control and build a hill beneath your home
          C#m        B              A              E
Where the gravity is weaker and the stars give you hope
       C#m             B     A            E
If the lines upon your hands predict this soul
C#m        B        A          B       E
Why are we waiting? Why are we wasting time?
