[Intro] G F# x2
 
[Verse]
C      C#     G      A    G  F#
Don't act like you've been silent
G F#   G   F#  G      F#   C   C# G  A  G  F#
I know how you spread that web of contradictions
G     F#   G  F#   G F#  Open/C#  A   G
Wide, like so much cover fire
 
[Chorus]
                   Open/C#  A G
Keep watch for the mines.
                   Open/C#  A G
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/C#
Keep watch for the mines
        A      G
The concealed dangers.
                               Open/C#
The traps and the chords of the wires
            A     G
With their sharp razors.
                                    Open/C#
The ditches and the trenches and the smiles
      A      G
Of the gravediggers.
                     Open/C#         A
And if you told, the answer needs no questioning,
    G
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.
