[Intro]
C    D    G    C    D    G

[Verse 1]
C    D                         G
I can see 'em through the front door
C         D                    G
A pack of wolves are closing in
C                  D                    G
And they're running angry down the hillside
C         D                    G
I hear 'em howling in the wind

[Verse 2]
C              D                    G
And inside there's devils on the TV
C                  D                    G
With the same old lies they always say
C    D                         G
So come wrap me in your love tonight
C                  D                    G
And help me keep 'em all at bay

[Pre-Chorus]
       C             D
Go and lock that door
             G
Come calm this storm
       C       D        G
Until the morning light
                 C
Baby, be my steady flame

[Chorus]
             D                    G
When my world gets to spinning
                    C
A little faster than I like
             D                    G
When the cold is closing in,
                                      C
You're the one match that'll strike
             D                    G
When the looks of me get desperate
                    C
Like a desert needing rain
             D
When the ground beneath me's
G                  C          D    G
Shaking, be my steady flame

[Verse 3]
C         D                    G
When my river gets to rising
C         D                    G
You're my levy holding strong
C         D                    G
You're a hand out in a riptide
                                      C
That holds on when you know I'm
D                  G
Just barely hanging on
                 C
Baby, be my steady flame

[Chorus]
             D                    G
When my world gets to spinning
                    C
A little faster than I like
             D                    G
When the cold is closing in,
                                      C
You're the one match that'll strike
             D                    G
When the looks of me get desperate
                    C
Like a desert needing rain
             D
When the ground beneath me's
G                  C          D    G
Shaking, be my steady flame

[Post-Chorus]
       C       D          G
Be my, be my steady flame

[Pre-Chorus]
       C             D
Go and lock that door
             G
Come calm this storm
       C       D        G
Until the morning light
                 C
Be my steady flame

[Chorus]
             D                    G
When my world gets to spinning
                    C
A little faster than I like
             D                    G
And the cold is closing in,
                                      C
You're the one match that'll strike
             D                    G
When the looks of me get desperate
                    C
Like a desert needing rain
             D
When the ground beneath me's
G                  C          D    G
Shaking, be my steady flame

[Outro]
       C       D       G    C    D    G
Be my, be my steady flame
       C       D       G
Be my, be my steady flame
