Bm,G,Em,F#  X4

Bm               G         Em                         Bm

they've barricaded all the windows and rigged the doorknobs shut with chairs
                         G      
what are they waiting for they don't know
Em                           Bm
they just keep their fingers crossed and maybe
               G    
pray to mary or jesus christ

                   G               Em                     Bm
she puts it by her window gives it sunlight restores its health

after a month or two the shells start to grow into branches of barbed wire 
                            G

lay low lay low keep your head down lay low lay low listen for the sound 
       G                  Em        Bm
of the dusty train that's comin' to sweep us all away
      G                Em        Bm
I can hear the rails a rattlin' against the hectic fray so
Em      Bm          F#        Em
set the bone with a cardboard split
Em             Bm    F#          Em
and strike the nail against the flint
Em          Bm        F# 
and set the fields on fire 
Em            Bm Em        Bm
let the devil come let him come
