CALL OF THE WILD 
 
Sung by Chris LeDoux 
Written by Chris LeDoux and Tony bessire. 
 
intro:     Em  G  D  Em  G  D 
Em                         C 
Storm clouds are building above the timber line 
D                          Em 
The lightning's flashing across the mountain side 
                                 C 
The thunder's rollin' down the canyons of his mind 
D                            Em    G D Em 
Somewhere beyond the great divide 
Em                         C 
The bugle of the bull elk echos through pines 
D                        Em 
The north wind moans her lonesome lullaby 
                                 C 
He hungers for the freedom of an eagle as she flies 
D                            Em 
Somewhere beyond the great divide 
 
Chorus: 
               D           Em 
He's heard the call of the wild  
G              D           Em 
He's heard the call of the wild 
                      D             A 
The mountains callin' to him like a mother calls her child 
G              D           Em 
He's heard the call of the wild 
 
Em                       C 
Livin' in the city oh it gets to be a grind 
D                    Em 
Puttin' in his hours workin' overtime 
                           C 
Waitin' for the day he can leave it all behind 
D                                  Em 
To go somewhere beyond the great divide 
 
bridge: 
     A                        Em 
He's got to get away from the city for a while 
A                     B                   A Em  
He's gotta answer the call of the wild 
 
Guitar Solo: (tab will come later, I'm still working on it) 
 
REPEAT CHORUS
