Johnny Cash, The Man Comes Around (2002)
Key: :[G#] (w: Johnny Cash)

INTRO:
[N.C.] 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

VERSE 1:
[G#] There's a man going around taking names
And he decides who to free and who to blame
Everybody won't be treated all the same
There will be a golden ladder [/G#] reach-[/G]-ing [/F] [Fm] down
[C#] When the [D#] man comes a-[G#]-round

VERSE 2:
[G#] The hairs on your arm will stand up
At the terror in each sip and each sup
Will you partake of that last offered cup
Or disappear into the [/G#] pott-[/G]-er's [/F] [Fm] ground
[C#] When the [D#] man comes a-[G#]-round

CHORUS:
[G#] Hear the trumpets hear the pipers, one hundred million angels singing
[G#] Multitudes are marching to the [C#] big [G#] kettle-[D#]-drum
[D#] Voices calling and voices crying, some are born and some are dying
[D#] Its alpha and omega's [D#] king-[/F]-dom [/G] come [/G#]
And the [C#] whirlwind is in [G#] the thorn tree

BRIDGE 1:
[G#] The virgins are all trimming their wicks
The [C#] whirlwind is in the thorn [G#] tree
[G#] It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks
[G#] Till Armageddon no shalam no shalom

VERSE 3:
[G#] Then the father hen will call his chickens home
The wise man will bow down before the throne
And at his feet they will cast the [/G#] gold-[/G]-en [/F] [Fm] crowns
[C#] When the [D#] man comes a-[G#]-round

VERSE 4:
[G#] Whoever is unjust let him be unjust to
Whoever is righteous let him be righteous to
Whoever is filthy let him be filthy still
Listen to the words long [/G#] writt-[/G]-en [/F] [Fm] down
[C#] When the [D#] man comes a-[G#]-round

REPEAT CHORUS:

REPEAT BRIDGE:

BRIDGE 2:
[G#] The virgins are all trimming their wicks
The [C#] whirlwind is in the thorn [G#] tree
[G#] It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks
In measured hundred weight and [/G#] penn-[/G]-y [/F] [Fm] pound
[C#] When the [D#] man comes a-[G#]-round

OUTRO:
[N.C.] And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts
And I looked and behold, a pale horse
And it's name it said on him was Death
And Hell followed with him.
