N.C. A N.C. E N.C.
Standing room only, not even room to kneel and pray
A E B7
Standing room only on the Judgment Day
Verse 1:
E A
Last night, I had an awful dream that the end of time had come
E A E
The trumpet had been sounded and life on earth was done
E A
An angel stood, one foot on land, the other foot on sea
E A
And as I tried to kneel and pray
a voice said unto me
E B7
There's standing room only
it's too late now to pray
E E7 A
There's standing room only, this is the Judgment Day
Verse 2:
E
People filled each church and churchyard just as far as I could see
A E
I heard a pitiful cry for mercy and then I realized it was me
A E
I saw the Savior did appear, as he split the eastern sky
A
I saw tears of joy on a Christian's face and I heard the sinners cry
E B7 E
And as I tried to touch his hand with one last eager plea
A
I cried again, "Have mercy, have mercy, Lord, on me"
Verse 3:
E
I saw a tear come to his eye as he turned my soul away
A E
I didn't know him yesterday and he knew me not today
A E
The earth was burning all around, the world went up in smoke
A
And as the flames came off me
thank God I awoke
E B7
Then I got out of bed and got down on my knees
E
And you should've heard me pray
A
For in my dream, I witnessed God's great Judgment Day
