   Am      C     F            G     E7     Am           
 
[verse: 1]
|Am                         C       |F       |
 Babes in the wood, walking through snow
|G         E7              |Am      |
  Big, bad wolf at the window
|Am                      C     |F      |
  Not much choice in the matter now
|G          E7             |Am        |  
 Some must lead, some must follow

[bridge: 1]
|C                       G             |F         |    
   And touch can mean distance to some peop
|C                  G                |F       |
  Touch can mean prison or be like a cage
|C                     G                 |F          |
I always thought that life could be more simple
|F              G           |F       
 Especially in this day and age
 
 
[chorus:]
             |Am                |F         | 
They got the time, they got the need
|E7                              |F                   |
   The world's getting weird, the wolf's running free
|F                    G    |E7              Am    | 
 But that's another story,   this is their story
 
[:] |Am    C | F       | G    E7  | Am     |

[verse: 2]
|Am                   C       |F       |  
 Babes in the wood, eager and keen
|G            E7             |Am     |
 Soft as the fern underneath them
|Am                          C      |F      
 Wet to the skin from their own hot glow
|G         E7           |Am      |
  No more wolf at the window
 
[bridge: 2]
|C                 G               |F        |
 Touch can mean distance to some people
|C                     G                    |F        |
 And touch can mean I own you forever and a day
|C          G                |F        |
  If only life could be more simple
|F              G           |F
 Especially in this day and age
 
 
[chorus:]
             |Am                |F       |
They got the time, they got the need
|E7                              |F                   |
   The world's getting weird, the wolf's running free
|F                    G    |E7            Am     |
 But that's another story,  this is their story
 
[:]     | Am    C | F       | G    E7  | Am      |    
        | Am    C | F       | G    E7  | Am    G |  
 
[bridge: 3]
|C                G              |F        |
 Touch can mean distance to some people
|C                      G                   |F        |
 And touch can bring blossom to things that decay
|C             G               |F       |   
 I think life should be that simple
|F              G           |F
 Especially in this day and age
 
 
[chorus:]
             |Am                |F           |
They got the time, they got the need
|E7                              |F                   |
   The world's getting weird, the wolf's running free
 |F                    G     |F                 |F {let ring}   |Am     C |
  But that's another story    this is, this is, this is their__ story
