Am
Black cats
Scurrying rats
Dm
Flapping bats
And heart attacks
E
Paint your faces green
And act obscene
                F             E
'cause it’s Halloween

[Verse 2]
Am
Goblins, spooks, and vampires too
Dm
Werewolves come to chew on you
E
The jack-o-lanterns start to grin
     F                         E
So let the tricks and treats begin

[Chorus]

     Am   Dm
On Halloween
           E   F  E
Halloween
     Am   Dm
It's Halloween
          E   F E
Halloween

[Verse 3]

Am
Fires crackle while I hold you tight
Dm
The witches cackle as they fly tonight
E
The devils all come out to play
F                                    E
And frighten children till night is day

Am
Now let's go visit the haunted grave
Dm
Take my hand, we must be brave
E
And afterwards we’ll get our fortunes read
               F                            E
But when the sun comes up we'll both be dead

[Chorus]
                 Am   Dm
Until next Halloween
          E F E
Halloween
      Am  Dm
It's Halloween
          E   F  E
Halloween

[Pt 2 Dormient]
A#  Dm

[Verse 4]

Dm                                                                           A#
The sky is gray. The leaves are falling on the ground
                                                    Dm
And old man winter's comin' round
                                                                               A#
One festive night and then it's gone without a sound
                                             Dm
But death follows me around
                 A#
I don't know
                                 Dm
if I can take another year
              A#
It's so cold
                                              Dm
And I know my faith is dying here
                   A#
You tease me
                                               Dm
With what I know I’ll never reach
               A#
I pray thee

                                            Dm
But I won’t cry I won't beseech
                A#                  Dm
I’m rolling up in my cocoon
                     A#                                     Dm
I'm changing with the fullness of the moon
                         A#
Don't take away
                        Dm
The only love I know
                 A#
My sacrifice
                          A7
If I ever want to glow

                 A#
So I can't win
                                A7
You’re making me choose
                                         A#
Between my love and my sin
         F                         C
And I thought I was an angel
Dm          A#
But I was wrong
F                 C
I'm with the others
              Dm                A#
And I've been here all along
F                                  c
Will you punish me because
  Dm                        A#
I'm made in your blood?
F                    C
Do I fly in the storm
Dm                            A#
Or do I wallow in the mud?

F                                     C
'Cause I've been lost for years
Dm                             A#
But I'm not coming back
F                    C
The guilt suffocates me and
Dm                   A#
turns my soul black
F                             C
So don't blame the Devil
             Dm                   A#
For the shit that you've done
F                          C
You've made this mess
          Dm                     A#
And you're just having fun
       F                       C         Dm          A#
With those who are able to see

[Pt 3 Revenge]

[Verse 5]
Am                      Dm
She was a pretty girl a treasure to him.

Am                            E
She was the purpose of his life.

Am                           Dm
And when they came they took his flower from him.

Am            E               Am      E
Those wicked men they killed his wife.

Am                             Dm
It was on Halloween when they found their way in.

Am                         E
He wasn't home, they were aware.

Am                            Dm
She prayed for death as they indulged their sin.

Am       E           Am         E
When he returned he found her there.

Am                     Am
So now's your chance, it may not be right.

E                         Am
Do you run and tell or do you stay and fight?

Dm                    Am
Rage fills your mind; you were a man without sin.

E                     Am
It's two against one; you'll never win.

Dm
But you just can't care.

E
There's blood everywhere.

[Verse 6]

Am                            Dm
It was a cold night when you let yourself in.

Am                               E
They both were armed, you did not care.

Am                           Dm
And one by one your torment seized each culprit.

Am              E         Am        E
Police found no bodies anywhere.

Dm                                  Am
There was no mercy shown when they broke into your home

     E                             Am
And ravished your lovely wife before taking her life.

          Dm                             Am
There's a beast in all who dwell on this Earth that is our hell.

   E                            Am
Suppress it if you can, but it's inside every man.

         Dm                        Am
Did you feel no remorse when you disciplined with force?

        E
Was it justice from above?

         Am
Did you punish them with love?

           Dm
Or was it cold hard revenge?

         Am
Did you earn your way to Hell?

      E
Will God forgive your sin?

           Am
Well that depends on who you tell.

          Dm                         E
There was blood everywhere, but you just could not care.
