Old John the baptist, old John divine
Leather harness round his line
His meat was locust and honey
Wild honey lord, wild honey
D
John saw that number
Way in the middle of the air
Cryin' holy, holy to the Lord
D
Old John the baptist, old John divine
Frogs and snakes are gonna get John this time
Bm
God told the angel "go see about John"
D
So he flew from the pit with the moon round his waist
Gathered wind in his fists so the stars round his wrists
G A D
Cryin' holy, holy to the lord
D
Read the revelations, you'll find him there
Third chapter, fourth verse where he said unto me
"There's a beast that rose out of the sea"
Ten crowns, ten crowns
On his horns write "blasphemy"
Bm
John couldn't read it (John couldn't read it)
D
Get on repeat it
Bm
John couldn't read it
G A D
Holy, holy to the Lord
(two, three, four, one...)
D
There was a man, a pharisee
Who came by night to meet him
Said "I know thy teacher came from God cause no man can do such miracles
G D
Without the lord (without the lord) to entreat him"
Bm
God told the angel "go see about John"
D
So he flew from the pit with the moon round his waist
Gathered wind in his fists and the stars round his wrists
G A D
Cryin' holy, holy to the Lord
G A D
Holy, holy to the Lord
G A D
Holy, holy to the Lord...
