[VERSE 1]
[Dm]If one and all who hear my call
Could lend their ears to[E] me
Then you could [Gm]hear the crooked tale
Of how this fire has [Dm]come to be [A]
[Dm]I must admit that the manipulator's f[E]ate was resting at my feet
But [Gm]all of his intimidation [Bb]brought me to my knees w[Dm]hen he said
[CHORUS]
[A/C#]"Keep this secret[Dm] safe, or[C/E] watch your flock de[F]voured [C]by the fl[Gm]ame
Left in my w[Dm]ake; I'll b[Am]urn throug[Bb]h you."

[VERSE 2]
[Dm]There is a vision you have come to know and love
[E](the deft defender with a heart of gold)
An imit[Gm]ation of a man he left to die
Face down in the mud
[Dm](such venom coursing t[A]hrough his veins)
[Dm]And now the mimic is a cynic who laughs
While the h[E]ouse of God is reduced to ash
Well, [Gm]I won't let corruption carry [Bb]on [Dm]
[CHORUS 2]
C[A/C#]ome out from the [Dm]dark and cl[C/E]aim your life
Bef[F]ore [C]you [Gm]all but fall ap[Dm]art [Am]
We[Bb] can keep this w[A/C#]olf far from our flock
[Dm]So raise your voi[C/E]ces, torches, [F]rocks
[C]And follow m[Gm]e into the [Dm]night
We'll bring this ev[A]il to the light

So w[C]e're [Bb]coming after you [Gm]tonight
[Bb]Coming after you[Gm] tonight[C]
[Dm]No word he could u[C]phold
Cause the [Dm]only truth he ever [C]told
Was that there's f[Bb]ar too many ways to [Gm]die
[Bb]Far too many ways to[Gm] die [C]
Smiling swine reprise
[Bb]Lost in his [G/B]memor[C]ies; the [A/C#]end in [Dm]sight
