A C D A
You can see it in the movies and the paper and the TV news
A C D A
Somebody's army is always on the move
A C
There's gonna be a battle the lines have been drawn
D A
They've got guns and tanks and planes
A C D A
The wells are gone dry and the water is bad and the air is acid rain
A D A
There's war after war and rumors of war from the East
A C D A
There's a rumblin' in the ground and they're talkin' about the beast
A C
Good mothers cry cause the rivers run high
D A
With the blood of too many sons
A C D A
Some people say peace is on the way But the worst is still to come
CHORUS:
A C
Cause the prophets wrote about it And Jesus spoke about it
D A
And John got to take a look
A C
And he told us what he saw when it's easy to see
D A D A
It's goin' by the book It's goin' by the book
A C D A
There's armies in the cities and the missiles stand ready for flight
A C D A
A pale horse rides like the wind across the night
A C
And that rumblin' in the desert like thunder gettin' closer
D A
And the trumpet's gettin' ready to blow
A C D A
There's gonna be a shout that will wake the dead we better be ready to go
CHORUS:
A C
Cause the prophets wrote about it And Jesus spoke about it
D A
And John got to take a look
A C
And he told us what he saw when it's easy to see
D A D A
It's goin' by the book It's goin' by the book
