_ _ _ And I heard, as it were, the noise of thunder.
One of the four beasts sang, Come and see.
And I [E] saw, and behold, [E] a white horse.
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] There's a man going [C] round taking names, and he decides who to free and who to blame. _ _
Everybody will be treated all the same. _ _
There'll be a golden ladder reaching [Am] down _ _
_ [F] when the [G] man [C] comes around. _ _
_ _ _ The hairs on your arm will stand up _ at the terror in each sip and in each sup.
_ Will you partake of that last offered cup or _ disappear into the potter's [Am] ground when
_ [F] the man comes [C] around?
_ _ Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers, _ _ one hundred million angels singing.
_ _ _ Multitudes are marching to the big kettle [G] drum.
_ _ Voices calling, voices crying.
_ _ _ Some are born and some are dying.
_ _ It's Alpha and Omega's [C] kingdom come.
And [F] the whirlwind is in [C] the thorn tree.
_ The virgins are all trimming their wigs.
_ _ [F] The whirlwind is in the [C] thorn tree.
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
_ _ _ _ _ Till Armageddon, no shalom, no shalom.
_ _ Then the father hen will call his chickens home.
_ The wise men will bow down before the throne.
_ And at his feet, they'll cast their golden [Am] crowns _ _ _ [G] when the man comes around.
[C] _ _ Whoever is unjust, let him be unjust still.
Whoever is righteous, let him be righteous still.
Whoever is filthy, let him be filthy still.
Listen to the words long written [Am] down when _ [F] _ [G] the man comes [C] around.
_ _ Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers, _ _ one hundred million angels singing.
_ _ _ Multitudes are marching [F] to the big [G] kettle drum.
_ Voices calling, voices crying.
_ _ _ Some are born and some are dying.
_ _ It's Alpha and Omega's [C] kingdom come.
_ [F] And the whirlwind [C] is in the thorn tree.
_ The virgins are all trimming their wigs.
_ [F] The whirlwind is [C] in the thorn tree.
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
_ In measured a hundred weight and penny [Am] pound.
_ _ _ [F] When the [G] man comes [C] around. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts.
And I looked and behold, [N] a pale horse.
And his name that sat on him was Death. _
And Hell followed with him. _ _ _ _
