🎶 He Was A Steppenwolf

[D#]Come on and listen to my tale. It's a strange and sorry tale
[D#]That's gonna rock you about a man, the drifting kind
[D#]Let the story [D#]now unwind. It's gonna shock you
[D#]Some people said he was a ghost wouldn't wanna be his host
[D#]Or just to meet him and if he ever came their way
[D#]They'd be sticks and stones, I'd say. That would grieve him

[D#]He was a Steppenwolf, [D]a lost and [Bbm]lonely one
[A#]He was a [Cb]Steppenwolf, forever on the run
[D#]He was a Steppenwolf, [D]with a for[Bbm]gotten past
[A#]He was a [Cb]Steppenwolf, who found a love at last. He was a [D#]Steppenwolf

[D#]The girl he met was out-of-sight though she walked the streets at night
[D#]He didn't mind it she seemed as happy as a song
And if anything was wrong he didn't find it
[D#]They used to laugh and dance and drink [D#]and not ever did he think of a payday
[D#]No matter where they ever were every day he spent with her was a hey-day

[D#]He was a Steppenwolf, [D]a lost and [Bbm]lonely one
[A#]He was a [Cb]Steppenwolf, forever on the run
[D#]He was a Steppenwolf, [D]with a for[Bbm]gotten past
[A#]He was a [Cb]Steppenwolf, who found a love at last. He was a [D#]Steppenwolf

[D#]One day she said "It's time you knew that I started up with you
[D#]For just one reason you're gonna do just what I want
[D#]'cause there's something that I want and I ain't teasing
[D#]My life is empty all around nothing that I ever found
[D#]Would fulfill me so for a while I'll be with you
[D#]When I say that we're through. You must kill me!"

[D#]He was a Steppenwolf, [D]He cried "It [Bbm]isn't fair"
[A#]He was a [Cb]Steppenwolf, "You know how much I care"
[D#]He was a Steppenwolf, [D]She said "This [Bbm]is the deal"
[A#]He was a [Cb]Steppenwolf, He saw this was for real. He was a [D#]Steppenwolf

[D#]He was a Steppenwolf, [D]they spent a [Bbm]long last night
[A#]He was a [Cb]Steppenwolf, and with a smile she died
[D#]He was a Steppenwolf, [D]a lost and [Bbm]lonely one
[A#]He was a [Cb]Steppenwolf, forever on the run. He was a [D#]Steppenwolf
