Intro: C   Am   F   C 

verse 1 
                               Am           C               Am 
Oh, the raven flies o?er these valleys, but he don?t make a sound 
         C               Am             C              Am 
O?er the deserts and the cities, he?s refusing to look down 
        Dm               Bb                    Dm           G 
And the old songs are forgotten, gone with the raven on the wing 
    C              Am               F                C 
And love no longer matters, and the wolves no longer sing 


verse 2 
                         Am          C                Am 
Now the old man sold his horses, his children sold the ranch 
            C                      Am                C              Am 
And there?s roads all through that valley, where his ponies used to dance 
        Dm           Bb               Dm              G 
The dry wind sings a lonesome tune, a longing for the Spring 
    C              Am               F                C 
And love no longer matters, and the wolves no longer sing 


Bridge 
    Bb               F             C 
The Old Man sold his kingdom for a song 
       Bb              F                     C 
What?s happened to the music? Where have the wild ones gone? 


verse 3 
        C               Am                C                  Am 
Now the rain will come again one day, the stars will keep on shining 
        C            Am                C          Am 
And the poets will return again, magic melody and rhyming 
       Dm               Bb                 Dm           G 
And if god is out there somewhere, looking down on everything 
     C                Am              F                  C 
Then love will always matter, and the wolves will always sing 
                      Am              F                  C 
Then love will always matter, and the wolves will always sing
