Dm  Am F  Am Dm  Am F

[Verse 1]
F           Dm          F
There was a time I fell into
F       Dm                    Am     F
A faded portrait of my father in his youth
F              Dm                 F
Both arms were locked down by his side
F        Dm            Am      F
Standing tall, dressed for the fight


[Chorus]
  Bb
A wandering wolf in the winter
    F                     C
His fortune, the son of a soldier
  Bb
A shot through the sky like a whisper
  F                         C
A life here and gone like a vapor
     Gm         F               C         Dm                Bb
And, oh, it was hard to watch you, it was hard to watch you go
       F               C
It was hard to watch you


[Verse 2]
        Dm         C     F
In my reflection I see a face
         Dm                   Am    F
Familiar features of a soul I can't erase
            Dm       Am       F
Deep in the hollow I hold his name
         Dm        C       F
Standing tall, one and the same


[Chorus]
  Bb
A wandering wolf in the winter
    F                     C
His fortune, the son of a soldier
  Bb
A shot through the sky like a whisper
  F                         C
A life here and gone like a vapor
     Gm         F               C         Dm                Bb
And, oh, it was hard to watch you, it was hard to watch you go
       F               C                           Dm
It was hard to watch you, it was hard to watch you go


[Bridge]
Dm F
Gm Bb

Dm                   C
Washed away with the wind
C                Gm
You were lifted above us
 Bb
Over us
Dm                  C
Ushered up with the tears
C                   Gm
Clouds were parted above us
 Bb
Over us


[Refrain]
Bb
Whoa, whoa, whoa
F           C
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Bb
Whoa, whoa, whoa
F           C
Whoa, whoa, whoa

[Chorus]
  Bb
A wandering wolf in the winter
    F                     C
His fortune, the son of a soldier
  Bb
A shot through the sky like a whisper
  F                         C
A life here and gone like a vapor
Gm         F               C         Dm      C         Bb
Oh, it was hard to watch you, it was hard to watch you go
       F               C                           Bb
It was hard to watch you, it was hard to watch you go
