The Man Comes Around Chords by Johnny Cash

_ _ _ And I heard, as it were, the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying,
Come and see.
And I saw, and behold, a white horse.
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
There's a man going 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 [G] the man comes [C] 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?
_ _ _ [F] When [G] the man comes [C] around.
_ _ Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers, _ _ one hundred million angels singing. _
_ _ Multitudes are marching [F] to the [C] big kettle [G] 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 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 priest.
_ _ _ _ _ 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 [Am] golden crowns.
_ [F] _ [G] When the man [C] comes around.
_ _ 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 [Am] written down.
_ _ _ [F] _ [G] When the man comes [C] around.
_ _ Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers, _ one hundred million angels singing.
_ _ _ Multitudes are marching [F] to the [C] 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 priest.
_ _ In measured a hundred weight and penny [Am] pound.
_ _ [F] _ [G] When the man [C] comes around.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts.
And I looked and behold, [F] a pale [Bm] horse.
And his name that sat on him was Death. _
