Intro: Verse 1: There's a shadow hanging over the valley Total eclipse of the moon Closing up the gates of the city The wind plays a wild tune Verse 2: Don't you put the lock upon the window Don't you put the bar on the door Don't you cry for the rain in the sky You've seen the storm before (Repeat Intro.) Chorus: Well, what's the matter with you baby Baby, what's the matter now Tell me what's the matter your running in the shadows Every time you hear the wild man howl (Repeat Chorus, intro, then Chorus twice while solo is being played, then intro again.) Verse 3: Lightning gonna strike at midnight Thunder gonna shake the ground Don't you flinch don't give an inch Just let the flood come down (Repeat Chorus twice, then intro.) End:
