Intro: Em 

      Em 
Last night my window opened   
        Am           Em 
in the cold winter breeze 
      C            Em     
and from the dark forest  
        Am         B     Em 
a white dog stared in at me 

Em 
He sat in the branches  
           Am            Em 
with his glowing yellow eyes 
     C          Em 
and softly he growled  
         G            D 
in the shaking black pines 

 Am                    C 
White dog, white dog, tell me  
             G   D 
where's the door 
 Am                 C 
across the lake of fire  
        G       D    Em 
to the silver shore 

Em 
I fell from my window  
         Am             Em 
in the swirling black breeze 
C              Em 
into the dark forest  
        Am B           Em 
and the ice-  covered leaves 
  Em                Am        Em    C      Em       Am  B  Em

Em Down, down through the branches Am Em through the white waving trees C Em down, down I fell G D into the mouth of the sea Am C White dog, white dog, tell me G D where's the door Am C across the lake of fire G D to the silver shore Em
