The Man Comes Around

**Chords:**
Am  C  G  Am  
Am  C  G  Am  
F  C  G  Am  
F  C  G  Am  

Am  
There's a man goin' 'round takin' names  
      C  
And he decides who to free and who to blame  
     G  
Everybody won't be treated all the same  
      Am  
There will be a golden ladder reaching down  
     Am  
When the man comes around  

Am  
The hairs on your arm will stand up  
      C  
At the terror in each sip and in each sup  
     G  
Will you partake of that last offered cup  
      Am  
Or disappear into the potter's ground  
     Am  
When the man comes around  

Am  
Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers  
      C  
One hundred million angels singin'  
     G  
Multitudes are marching to the big kettle drum  
      Am  
Voices callin', voices cryin'  
     Am  
Some are born and some are dyin'  
     F  
It's alpha and omega's kingdom come  
     C  
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree  
     G  
The virgins are all trimming their wicks  
      Am  
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree  
     Am  
It's hot as a furnace in the land of the dead  
     C  
And the man comes around
