KEEP YOUR MUZZLE ON – capo 4
G D Am C
Somehow I am making peace
Without continual release
From expectations and restrictions
Letting fate guide my convictions

Of a world that I can't change
As a fox with a lower vocal range
Brain split beyond all reconciling
D7
Like code continually compiling

G D Em C
G7 Am Em C7
Now I know that it's okay to not have anything to say
When your words bring claws of violence you can leave them in the silence

D7
Keep your muzzle on
G D Am C (x2)
G D Am C
Sometimes I’d take off the cage
In a meadow vent my rage
Then I put it right back on
If that's how we all could get along

I've said some things that I regret
And yet somehow I haven't died yet
Words are cheap, memories fade
Come and sit, rest in the shade with me

(chorus)
We won't scream or shout
Somehow we'll learn to live without
A broader purpose or a mission
a vulpine life lacking ambition

D7
Keep your muzzle on

G D Am C (x2)
Your muzzle may not be who you are
But your muzzle's kept you singing so far
Your muzzle is your voice
But your muzzle can also be your choice

(Early into C here, rough transition style) (C D7 G G7 (x4)
Your Life goes on
Just like this song
If you can’t (can) Keep your muzzle on

C D7 G
Your life goes on, keep your muzzle on (Final note is third, not first or fifth)
