[Verse]
Em
A devil is dancing in the gloam
Em
With twilight eyes and cloven chrome
D
The master of the masquerade
G D Em
Put a lantern in the window
G Bm Em
Put a lantern in the window
Em
He preys on the weak - he feeds on the lame
Em
And snarls at those who utter his name
D
As an omen of dark days to come
G D Em
Put a lantern in the window
G Bm A
Put a lantern in the window
[Chorus]
A D
For those without a voice
G D A
Who languish in the shadows
A D
For those without a choice
G D A
Put a lantern in the window
G D A
Put a lantern in the window
[Interlude]

[Verse]
Bm
A devil is dancing in the wake
Bm
Of a broken land he means to take
A
By force of will and grand acclaim
D A Bm
Put a lantern in the window
D F# Bm
Put a lantern in the window
Bm
His silken tongue is savage and bold
Bm
Slithering sweet and a sight to behold
A
When you retire to your bed tonight
D A Bm
Put a lantern in the window
D F# E
Put a lantern in the window
[Chorus]
A D
For those out in the cold
G D A
Who linger in their sorrow
A D
For those outside the fold
G D A
Put a lantern in the window
G D A
Put a lantern in the window

[Bridge]
Em G F# Bm Em
Lest you awake to a world that is gone
Em G F# Bm Em
A piece at a time in the hours before dawn
Em G F# Bm Em
Embers and ashes where monoliths stood
Em G F# Bm Em
A devil presiding o’er all that is good
[Chorus]
A D
Laughing in your face
G D A
And basking in his bank roll
A D
For those who fall off the pace
G D A
Leave a lantern in the window
G D A
Leave a lantern in the window
[Outro]
G D
And brace yourself for the end times
Em
But keep your hearts aglow
