The Watch

 
Em 
One must be quick as a hare 
One must be silent as shadow 
   D                          C                       Em 
If you're to head off and not tryna get caught by the watch 
Em 
One must move low in the grass 
One must be quiet in shallows 
   D                          C                       Em 
If you're to head off and not tryna get caught by the watch 
 

 
            Am 
They've got dark crimson cloaks 
D 
Gauntlets that choke 
   B7                          Em 
If you're really leaving, stay off of the roads 
Am                          Gmaj7 
Make no mistake, there's no need to provoke 
   B7                      Em 
If they even see you, they swing for your throat 
 

 
C               D 
If I could give one final warning 
    G               D              Am                   Em 
I'd pray that you'd stay and you'd wait 'til the morning 
          D                      Cmaj7                   Em 
If you're tryna head off and not tryna get caught by the watch 
 

 
Em 
One must be brave as a fool 
One must be cunning as wolf pack 
   D                          C                       Em 
If you're to head off and not tryna get caught by the watch 
Em 
One must be too filled with wine 
One must find no pleasure breathing 
   D                          C                       Em 
If you're to head off and not tryna get caught by the watch 
 

 
            Am 
They've got ebony blades 
D 
Self-sharpened fangs 
B7                          Em 
They'll kill a man and then dig him no grave 
Am                           Gmaj7                 B7       Em 
Don't get it wrong, you will not get away from the watch 
 

 
C               D 
If I could give one final warning 
    G               D              Am                   Em 
I'd pray that you'd stay and you'd wait 'til the morning 
          D                      Cmaj7                   Em
