Burn the Witch - Shawn James
The places for lyrics may be slightly off during the first half of the song but should be close. The intro can
be played multiple ways. The live version of the song shows Shawn using the low end of the 5th string but if
you are playing with no effects using the 6th string allows for a deeper sound and is easier to play. I will
make another version closer to how Shawn plays it if requested.

                        I stand accused          of   bein'  in league with Satan
(B7)   (Em)    (Am)        (G)   (B7) (Em) (Am) (G) (B7)
   No    proof    for the false accusation
(Em) (Am)    (G)     (D6)       (Em)(Am) (G) (B7)
  Talk to the stake, no hope of escape
(Em)     (Am)      (G)        (B7)   (Em)(Am) (G)
  I stand alone and embrace my fiery  fate
(B7)        (Am)                         (Em)
 But I won't scream, won't give them that satisfaction
          (Am)                  (Em)
No I won't confess my false interaction

Oh I won't scream, won't give them that satisfaction

I won't confess my false interaction
                (Am)                   (Em)
Now as I breathe deep and prepare for my passing
           (B7)            (Em) (Am) (G)
I hear them chant, burn the witch
(B7)     (Em) (Am)  (G)  (B7)      (Em) (Am) (G)
 Burn the witch,           burn the witch
