Am C#m
The night is black without a moon
G Am
The air is thick and still
C#m
The vigilantes gather on
G Am C Em D
The lonely torchlit hill
Am C Em D
Pre Chorus:
Am C Em D
Features distorted in the flickering light
Faces are twisted and grotesque
Am C Em D
Silent and stern in the sweltering night
The mob moves like demons possesed
Am C Em D
Quiet in conscience calm in their right
Confident their ways are best
Am C Em D
oh ah
Am C Em D x2
Chorus:
Am C
The righteous rise
Em D
With burning eyes
Of hatred and ill-will
G Am C Em D
Madmen fed on fear and lies
To beat and burn and kill
Am
Verse2:
chords the same as in the first verse
They say there are strangers who threaten us
Our immigrants and infidels
They say there is strangeness to danger us
In our theatres and bookstore shelves
That those who know what's best for us
Must rise and save us from ourselves
Chorus2:
G Am C
Quick to judge
Em D
Quick to anger
Slow to understand
G Am C Em D
Ignorance and prejudice
G Am C Em D
And fear walk hand in hand
G Am C Em D x2
