In the fire, the king will come.

Dm C G

Thunder rolls, piper and drum.

Dm G

Evil sons, overrun,

Dm C G

Count their sins - judgment comes.

Dm F C ...

The checkerboard of nights and days -

Man will die, man be saved.

The sky will fall, the earth will pray,

When judgment comes to claim its day.

F Em

See the word of the prophet

C Am G

On a stone in his hand.

F Em

Poison pen revelation,

C Am

Or just a sign in the sand?

F Dm C F G Am G F G A

The checkerboard of nights and days -

Man will die, man be saved.

The sky will fall, the earth will pray,

When judgment comes to claim its day.

See the word of the prophet

On a stone in his hand.

Poison pen revelation,

Or just a sign in the sand?
