Intro

x2

Verse

Don't act like you've been silent

I know how you spread that web of contradictions

Wide, like so much cover fire

  Open/

Keep watch for the mines.

Verse 2

Be careful who you wave that tongue at 'round here.

I've seen smarter acts than yours get disappeared.

If you keep swinging that knife up over this town

You are bound to get your own back stabbed

Chorus 2

Open/Db

Keep watch for the mines

 The concealed dangers.

Open/Db

The traps and the chords of the wires

 With their sharp razors.

Open/Db

The ditches and the trenches and the smiles

 Of the gravediggers.

  Open/

And if you told, the answer needs no questioning,

 The answer is a lie.

Bridge

Open/Db, A, G 6x (quick strumming)

Keep watch for the mines.

Keep watch for the mines.

Keep watch for the mines.

(will they bleed everyone out?)

(will they bleed everyone out?)

Keep watch for the mines.

(will they bleed everyone out before they die?)

Keep watch for the mines.

(will they bleed everyone out?)

(will they bleed everyone out?)

Keep watch for the mines.

(will they bleed everyone out before they die?)

Keep watch for the mines.
