Tonality
Verse:
C
Thereʼs a man, going around, taking names
C
And he decides, who to free, and who to blame
C
Every body, wonʼt be treated, quite the same
CAmF
Thereʼll be a golden ladder, reaching down.
FGC
When the man comes around.
C
The hairs on your arm will stand up
C
At the terror in each Sip and each sup
C
Will you partake of that last offered cup
CAmF
Or disappear into the potterʼs ground
FGC
When the man comes around.
Chorus:
C
Hear the Trumpets hear the pipers
C
One hundred million angels singing
CFCG
Multitudes are marching to a big kettledrum
G
Voices calling, voices crying
G
Some are born and some are dying
GC
Itʼs Alpha and Omega Kingdom come
CFC
And the wirldwind in the thorn trees
C
And the virgins are all trimming their wicks
CFC
The wirldwind in the thorn trees
C
Itʼs hard for thee to kick against the pricks
C
Till Armageddon no shalom, no shalom
Verse:
C
Then the father hen will call his chickenʼs home
C
The wise man will bow down before the thorn
CAmF
And at his feet they will cast the golden crowns…
FGC
When the man comes around.
C
Whoever is unjust let him be unjust still
C
Whoever is righteous let him be righteous still
C
Whoever is filthy let him be filthy still
CAmF
Listen to the words long written down
FGC
When the man comes around
Chorus:
C
Hear the Trumpets hear the pipers
C
One hundred million angels singing
CFCG
Multitudes are marching to a big kettledrum
G
Voices calling, voices crying
G
Some are born and some are dying
GC
Itʼs Alpha and Omega Kingdom come
CFC
And the wirldwind in the thorn trees
C
And the virgins are all trimming their wicks
CFC
The wirldwind in the thorn trees
Outro:
N.C.
And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts
and I looked and behold, a pale horse
and its name it said on him was Death
And Hell followed with him.
