As recorded by Blackberry Smoke (From the 2016 Album LIKE AN ARROW) [Intro] B5 E5 B5 D5 E5 [Verse 1]
B5
Light the fuse and run now brother

                            E5
Cuz' you ain't got a lot of time

B5
Don't you act surprised

                                    B5 A5
When it all goes to hell on your dime

B5
Maybe you can stand tall enough

                           B5 E5
To look the devil eye to eye

B5
But you better make your getaway quick
N.C. So you don't have to answer why [Chorus]
    D5    A5
The bells will ring

        D5          E5
And the flames will fly

B5  D5       A5                   D5        E5  B5
Two thousand years of fury in the big black sky

    D5   A5
The wind will roll

        D5        E5
And the rain will fall

B5     D5      A5          D5
Are we waiting for the thunder?

A5   E5       F#5         B5
Will the lightnin' get us all?

E5                  B5    E5  
Waitin' for the thunder
[Verse 2]
B5
All the money and the war and religion

                         E5
And the which one do you serve?

B5
Maybe them with the power and the glory

                        A5
Got more than they deserve

B5
Why do we stand by and do nothin'

                         B5
While they piss it all away?

B5
And we hope we wake up in the mornin'
N.C. To the light of a brand new day [Chorus]
    D5    A5
The bells will ring

        D5          E5
And the flames will fly

B5  D5       A5                   D5        E5  B5
Two thousand years of fury in the big black sky

    D5   A5
The wind will roll

        D5        E5
And the rain will fall

B5     D5      A5          D5
Are we waiting for the thunder?

A5   E5            B5     F#5
Will the lightnin' get us all?
