Intro: (x3) Verse In the year of the tiger, I won't weep and moan Got no time for cooling heels, I've got to roam In the year of the tiger, I'm gonna roll these bones Gonna leave behind the heartache that I’ve known The only love I've known has slipped away The only love I’ve known has gone away Verse In the year of the tiger, I’m gonna stake my claim Run a thousand miles beyond this house of pain In the year of the tiger, I got my kin to save And I'll be damned to see them suffer one more day On a cold, cruel July We didn't know just when the pale horse would arrive But love alone keeps us alive N.C. When we fear we can't go on at all Instrumental (x3) Verse In the year of the tiger, I heard a nightmare scream Cut above the din of every future dream In the year of the tiger, well, you'd best believe I am haunted by the visions that I've seen On a cold, cruel July We didn't know just when the pale horse would arrive But love alone keeps us alive N.C. When we fear we can't go on at all Instrumental (x3) Verse In the year of the tiger, into an ocean grave Threw his ashes to the wind then walked away In the year of the tiger, I got no time to waste A resolution to keep fighting and remain On a cold, cruel July We didn't know just when the pale horse would arrive But love alone keeps us alive N.C. When we fear we can't go on at all Outro In the year of the tiger In the year of the tiger In the year of the tiger In the year of the tiger
