Queen - The Prophet's Song: chords

Dm C  Dm
Oh oh people of the earth
Dm
Listen to the warning
          C
The Seer he said
 F           C         A#     Dm
Beware the storm that gathers here
Dm                 A#
Listen to the wise man

Am
I dreamed I saw on a moonlit stair
Am             C            D    G    Am
Spreading his hands on the multitude there
A                      D
A man who cried for a love gone stale
    E                           A
And ice cold hearts of charity bare
Am
I watched as fear took the old men's gaze
Am            C         A#      Am
Hopes of the young in troubled graves
   Am     A#     B         C
I see no day, I heard him say
    C#          D      D#     E
So grey is the face of every mortal

Dm
Oh oh people of the earth
Dm
Listen to the warning
             C
The prophet he said
     F        C       A#        Dm
For soon the cold of night will fall
Dm                    F
Summoned by your own hand

Oh oh children of the land
Quicken to the new life
Take my hand
Ooh, fly and find the new green bough
Return like the white dove

He told of death as a bone white haze
Taking the lost and the unloved babe
Late too late all the wretches run
These kings of beasts now counting their days
From mother's love is the son estranged
Married his own his precious gain
The earth will shake in two will break
And death all around will be your dowry

Dm  C  Dm
Oh oh people of the earth
Dm
Listen to the warning
          C
The Seer he said
      F        C        A#      Dm
For those who hear and mark my words
Dm                 F#m
Listen to the good plan

A# F  A# F  A#                          F
Oh oh oh oh - and two by two my human zoo
They'll be
D
Running for to come
Gm
Running for to come
           Dm
Out of the rain
C    G                 Em
Oh, flee for your life
B            A                  G            D
Who heed me not, let all your treasure make you
C    G                 Em
Oh, fear for your life
B            A                G              D
Deceive you not the fires of hell will take you
        F           C
Should death await you

Ah, people can you hear me?
And now I know and now I know
And now I know, I know
I know that you can hear me
And now I know, now I know
Now I know, now I know
Now I know, now I know
Now I know, now I know
Now I know
The earth will shake, in two will break
The earth will shake, in two will break
Death all around, around, around, around
Around, around, around, around
Now I know, now I know, now I know
And now I know, now I know
Now I know, now I know
Now I know, now I know
Now I know, now I know
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Listen to the wise, listen to the wise
Listen to the wise, listen to the wise
Listen to the wise man
La-la

La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la

Come here
I, you
Come here
I, you
Come here
I, you
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
Listen to the man, listen to the man
Listen to the man, listen to the madman

God give you the grace to purge this place
And peace all around may be your fortune
Oh oh children of the land
Love is still the answer, take my hand
The vision fades, a voice I hear
"Listen to the madman!"
Ooh, but still I fear and still I dare not
Laugh at the madman
