Verse: A - Bm (repeat)
Biss: D - A (3x) D - E

A                   Bm
You try to close your ears
A                   Bm
And you try to close your eyes
A                   Bm
But the blasphemies keep coming
A                   Bm
Tempting you with lies

(Chorus)
D                       A
Give thanks for you protection
D                       A
Your watchdogs of the night
D                       A
Who hold the hungry wolves at bay
D                     E           E
And keep them out of sight, out of sight

A                   Bm
You just don`t understand it
A                   Bm
But it strikes a distant chord
A                   Bm
So you look for away of escaping
A                   Bm
And sanity`s restored

(Chorus)
D                       A
Give thanks for your protection
D                       A
the watchdogs of the night
D                       A
Who hold the hungry wolves at bay
D                     E           E
And keep them out of sight, out of sight

A                   Bm
You focus your direction
A                   Bm
Cloak tightly pulled around
A                   Bm
But somewhere in the distance
A                   Bm
You can hear a haunting sound

(Chorus)
D                       A
Give thanks for your protection
D                       A
the watchdogs of the night
D                       A
Who hold the hungry wolves at bay
D                     E           E
And keep them out of sight, out of sight

A                   Bm
You`re in danger of corruption
A                   Bm
And you`re always running scared
A                   Bm
You cannot make decisions
A                   Bm
You`re completely unprepared


(Chorus)
D                       A
Give thanks for your protection
D                       A
the watchdogs of the night
D                       A
Who hold the hungry wolves at bay
D                     E           E
And keep them out of sight, out of sight
