chords are
EADGBeC1 (332010)
Ok, so here goes. C1 is a muted chord you just have to listen to the song
to hear the pattern. I know there are at least two guitars in this song but
this is just how I figured it out for one and it sounds ok to me.
I definitely would like any kind of feedback on this as this is my
VERY first tab work.
Enjoy! Johnny Cash is and forever shall be "THE MAN"

Ok, for the rest of the song you can basically listen and figure
out the changes the pickings are all the same. Here's the lyrics
with the chords.
THIS IS SPOKEN
And I heard as it were the noise of thunder. One of the four
beasts saying, "Come and see". and I saw and behold a white horse
there's a man goin' round takin' names and he decides who to free
and who to blame everybody will be treated all the same
Am F Gthere'll be a golden ladder reaching down when the
man comes around
the hairs on your arm will stand up at the terror in each sip
and in each sup will you partake of that last offered cup? or
Am F Gor disappear onto the potter's ground
CHORUSC2 C3 C2
hear the trumpets hear the pipers one hundred million
C3 C2
angels singing multitudes are marching to the big kettle drum
G
voices calling voices crying some are born and some are dying
C1(nm) F
its alpha and omega's kingdom come and the whirlwind is in the
thorn tree the virgins are all trimming their wings the
whirlwind is in the thorn tree
C1its hard for thee to kick against the pricks til armegeddon no
shalom no shalome then the father hen will call his chickens home
the wise men will bow down before the throne and at his feet
Am F Gthey'll cast their golden crowns when the man comes around
whoever is unjust let him be unjust still whoever is righteous
let him be righteous still whoever is filthy let him be filthy
Am F Gstill listen to the words long written down when the
man comes around
it's hard for thee to kick against the pricks in measured hundred
Am F G C1(nm)
weight and paid pound when the man comes around
THIS IS SPOKEN..
and i heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts and i looked
and behold a pale horse and his name that sat on him was Death,
and Hell followed with him
The final C chord ends with a strong down up
