Capo : 3
Intro :  C   Em   Am   C   Em   Am   F   E  
If Amthey don themselves with crFystals to make them look sharp
SlAmeep with their hand on a pistol, bFut they're afraid of the dark
WGell if it wakes you, whiCmaj7ch it has been known to
Don't be F#malarmed, darkness can't do you Fharm  
Fear will huErt you
OAmutside the wind is beating Fa tree to a bend
AmDon't fear that it might be meeting Fsome untimely end
If they dGo what they're supposed to, as thCmaj7ey have been known to
Stand F#mstrong and tall, weather it alFl
Take what you caEn
NeAmver give orders, jFust to be obeyed
NeAmver consider yourself or others wiFthout knowing that you'll change
May Gnot surprise you, but Cmaj7pride has been known to
Rise up F#ma storm, countless lives Flost
At the hands of priEde unformed
CWho'll weEmep for them? SAmometimes I do, I do sometimes
CWho weeps fEmor them? SomeAmtimes I do, I do sometimes
CYou can'Emt see it? Might Ambe behind you, Keep your eyes wide
CYou can't Emsee it? MigAmht be behind you
FKeep those eyes wideE  
AmDon't be impressed bFy strong personalities
AmSincere words are raFrely sickly sweet
BGut if they fool you, whiCmaj7ch they have been known to
Don't lose yoF#mur sight, know something's not Fright
And look at the Estars
Be waAmry of being given a nFame
AmIf for some reason, youF're not the considered the same
OnGce they name you, they haCmaj7ve been known to
LF#mock you in, statisticaFl sin
They'd ratheEr ignore
CWho'll wEmeep for them? AmSometimes I do, I do sometimes
CWho weepEms for them? SomeAmtimes I do, I do sometimes
CYou can'Emt see it? MighAmt be behind you, Keep your eyes wide
