Gm Bm
The night is black, without a moon
F Gm
The air is thick and still
Bm
The vigilantes gather on
F Gm Bb Dm C
The lonely torchlit hill
Gm Bb Dm C
Gm Bb
Dm C
Features distorted in the flickering light
Gm
Faces are twisted and grotesque
Bb Dm C
Silent and stern in the sweltering night
Gm
The mob moves like demons possessed
Bb Dm C
Quiet in conscience, calm in their right
Gm Bb
Confident their ways are best
Dm C
Ohhh
Ohhhhh
Gm Bb Dm C (x2)
[Chorus]
F Gm
Dm C
The righteous rise with burning eyes
C Bb C Bb C F Gm
Of hatred and ill-will
Bb Dm C
Madmen fed on fear and lies
C Bb C Bb C Gm
To beat and burn and kill
[Verse 2]
Gm Bm
They say there are strangers who threaten us
F Gm
Our immigrants and infidels
Bm
They say there is strangeness too dangerous
F Gm
In our theatres and bookstore shelves
Bm
Those who know what's best for us
F Gm Bb
Must rise and save us from ourselves
[Chorus]
Dm C
F Gm Bb Dm C
F Gm Bb
Dm C
Quick to judge, quick to anger
F Gm Bb
Slow to understand
Dm C
Ignorance and prejudice
F Gm Bb
And fear walk hand in hand
Dm C
