A
Up on the isle of Patmus
D A
A man was cast one day
As he was left alone to die
B E
He began to pray
A
The Holy Ghost came on him
D A
The Spirit, he came down
F#m
He began to write about the things he saw
B E A
The revelators' name was John
[Chorus]
(Talkin' 'bout John)
A
John the Revelator
D A
He saw Jerusalem comin' down
(Yes, it was John)
A
John the Revelator
B E
And when he looked around
A
He saw feet like brass
A7
Eyes like fire
D D#/A#
Heard a great voice sayin' "Come up higher!"
(It was John)
A F#m
John the Revelator
B E A
He wrote about the city of God
[Verse 2]
A
While in the spirit prayin'
D A
John turned around to see
If the voice he had heard
B E
Was what it seemed to be
A
Just like the many waters
D A
A great trumpet sound
F#m B
Well He said, "I am the first and last."
E A
The revelator wrote it down
[Chorus]
(Talkin' 'bout John)
A
John the Revelator
D A
He saw Jerusalem comin' down
(Yes, it was John)
A
John the Revelator
B E
And when he looked around
A
He saw feet like brass
A7
Eyes like fire
D D#/A#
Heard a great voice sayin' "Come up higher!"
(It was John)
A F#m
John the Revelator
B E A
He wrote about the city of God
[Tag]
He saw feet like brass
A7
Eyes like fire
D D#/A#
Heard a great voice sayin' "Come up higher!"
(It was John)
A F#m
John the Revelator
B E A
He wrote about the city of God
