Verse 1:
         B
Have you ever sat and wondered
        E               B
At the sound of the thunder
          E                                     B
Have you felt the ground a-rumble under your feet
       E                    G#m
Well, gather 'round, you ramblers
     B                 E
And come on, you bystanders
           E               F#            B
If you're tired of your dusty old streets

      B
Your vineyards, they give plenty
          E               B
But your houses all lie empty
          E                            B
And your days are as bitter as your minds
         E               G#m
But the Lord's gonna shake you
         B          E
So that you can awake to new life
            F#            B
Leave those old ways behind

Chorus:
      G#m
The Pleiades and Orion
     B                 E
You can't see them shining
                       B
You've followed false lights
           F#
And gone blind

      F#
Your harps are all broken
         G#m                   B      E
But the judgement has been spoken
          G#m           F#          B
And he's coming your wounds to bind

Verse 2:
B
Amos don't blame us
      E                B
And who are you to shame us
               E                                 B
Why don't you take your stale breath somewhere else
    E           G#m
Go back to Tacoma
     B           E
And leave us alone
        E              F#                B
Pack it up, hit the road, fair thee well

  B
Brothers, I ain't no prophet
     E                B
And neither was my father
    E                        B
No need for such bitter uproar
   E            G#m
I sure never figured
        F#              E
That a poor sycamore picker
                      F#            B
Be crying out in the name of the Lord

Chorus:
      G#m
The Pleiades and Orion
     B                 E
You can't see them shining
                       B
You've followed false lights
           F#
And gone blind

        F#
If you roll a deep night
                 G#m           B         E
He'll turn your darkness to daylight
         G#m               F#          B
And the mountains will drip sweet wine

Chorus:

The Pleiades and Orion
           B                E
Don't you wanna see 'em shining
           E
Lift your head up
     G#m          F#
The time has arrived

       F#
He'll rebuild your walls
          G#m           B        E
And His Glory will be all in all
         G#m               F#          B     E
And the mountains will drip sweet wine
