Intro: E C#m F#m B7

E                                  C#m
Just because you don’t speak the language
F#m                                     B7
Doesn’t mean that you can’t understand
E                                  C#m
Just because you don’t speak the language
F#m                                     B7
Doesn’t mean that you can’t understand
E                                           C#m
The twist in the script of the insult
F#m                                       B7
Scrawled on the back of your hand

E                                   C#m
Torn from the pages of scripture
F#m                         B7
Sprayed on the wall in the frays of a flag
E                         C#m
Kisses forbidden on lips
F#m                                    B7
And all of your fine clothes worn into rags

E             C#m       F#m       B7
Tripwire, tripwire, tripwire, tripwire
E
There’s a tripwire
C#m       F#m        B7
Tripwire, tripwire, tripwire

E                              C#m
Don’t open the door ‘cause they’re coming
F#m                          B7
Don’t open the door ‘cause they’re here
E                                        C#m
Above there’s an ominous humming
F#m                               B7
Below there’s a murmur of prayer

E                               C#m
Torn from the pages of scandal
F#m                              B7
Sprayed on a wall in the frays of the flag
E                         C#m
Kisses forbidden on lips
F#m                                    B7
and all of your fine clothes blown into rags

E             C#m       F#m       B7
Tripwire, tripwire, tripwire, tripwire
E
There’s a tripwire
C#m       F#m        B7
Tripwire, tripwire, tripwire

E                                           
There’s a cross in the line there’s a circus
E                                      
There’s a voice that you might overhear
E                                 
There’s a lens making the picture perfect
E                               
They say you have nothing to fear

E                                  C#m
Torn from the pages of pamphlets
F#m                           B7
Thrown in the air like confetti in church
E                                  C#m
Far, far away there’s a target
F#m                                  B7
and the sound of an army just starting to march

E             C#m       F#m       B7
Tripwire, tripwire, tripwire, tripwire
E
There’s a tripwire
C#m       F#m        B7
Tripwire, tripwire, tripwire

E                              C#m
Just because I don’t read the language
F#m                       B7
Doesn’t mean that I'm blind to the threat
E                                                       C#m
Though I thought there was more to forgiveness
F#m                                B7
Than all we conveniently forget

E                                   C#m
Torn from the pages of history
F#m                        B7
Repeated again and again and again
E                             C#m
You’re either for or against us
F#m                        B7
and that is how the hatred begins


(repeat 2 or 3 times and fade, or play twice and finish with an E)
E             C#m       F#m       B7
Tripwire, tripwire, tripwire, tripwire
E
There’s a tripwire
C#m       F#m        B7
Tripwire, tripwire, tripwire
