Queen – The Prophets Song (Ukulele)

Intro chords: Dm C A# Dm C Dm Dm

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           A#    F    Am
Spreading his hands on the multitude there

Am                     Dm
A man who cried for a love gone stale

     Em                 C       A#
And ice cold hearts of charity bare

Am
I watched as fear took the old men's gaze

Am            C          A#
Hopes of the young in troubled graves

   Am      A#    B        C
I see no day, I heard him say

    C#         D        D#    Em
So grey is the face of every mortal

Dm  C  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                   A#
Summoned by your own hand

Dm  C   Dm
Oh oh children of the land

Dm
Quicken to the new life

C
Take my hand

      F      C        A#         Dm
Ooh, fly and find the new green bough

Dm                     A#
Return like the white dove

Am
He told of death as a bone white haze

Am         C            A# F    Am
Taking the lost and the unloved babe

Am                    Dm
Late too late all the wretches run

      Em                   C             A#
These kings of beasts now counting their days

     Am
From mother's love is the son estranged

Am          C       A#
Married his own his precious gain

     Am        A#        B        C
The earth will shake in two will break

    C#         D        D#         Em
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     F
Oh oh oh oh - and two by two my human zoo

They'll be

Dm
Running for to come

Running for to come

           Dm
Out of the rain

C    G                 Em
Oh, flee for your life

B            A                 G             D  Dsus2 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
