*The rhythm is pretty easy just listen for it*
(Em) The air my lungs first loved
carves craters from my eyes
they said "breathe deeply kid,
or be the next to die."
(C) Beneath the falling night
and heaven's shutting gate (Em)
(C)pray keep your tongue held tight
or suffer the same fate
(Em )the blood on our black (D)gloves
it is none of your (C) concern
(Em) if you want to call our (D) bluff
get in line and wait your (C) turn
and watch the witches burn"
(Em) Don't flinch when innocents
are (D) dancing with the flame
(C)if they wanted to live
(Am)they'd learn to play the game
(Em) You can still walk away
(D) if you just hold your tongue
(C) if you'd just walk away
(Am) you'd live to see the sun but"
*This part is all down stroke quarter notes*
(C) Under this killing moon
under this burning sky
the fire's shining groom
I (C *strum once here*) hold my breath and close my eyes
(Em) "The blood on our black (D) gloves
it is none of your (C) concern
(Em) if you want to call our (D) bluff
get in line and wait your (C) turn
(Em ) "The blood on our black (D) gloves
it is none of your (C) concern
(Em) if you want to call our (D) bluff
get in line and wait your (C) turn
(C) and watch the witches (Em) burn

| Satan is a squirrel is right, it is "or be the next to die" although in their CD the lyrics say "watch the traitors die" | |

| I think it is saying that we all watch these things happen all the time, people being called witches, witch hunts whatever you want to call them. But we never speek out for fear of being the next one to be burned. | |
