Transcribed by DWdrummer67. This is a great tune... enjoy!
Tuning: Standard (Capo 2nd fret)
Intro: G+G
G+G
I hear the crying of the hungry in the deserts where they're wandering
G+G
Hear they're crying out for heaven’s own benevolence upon them
G+G
Hear destructive power prevailing, I hear fools falsely hailing
C majorC
To the crooked wits of tyrants when they call
G+G
I hear them all, I hear the all, I hear them all
G+G
I hear the sounds of tearing pages and the roar of burning paper
G+G
All the crimes and acquisition turn to air and ash and vapor
G+G
And the rattle of the shackle far beyond emancipator
C majorC
And lowliest who gather in their stalls
G+G
I hear them all, I hear the all, I hear them all
Harmonica Solo (verse & chorus progression)
G+G
So while you sit and whistle dixie with your money and your power
G+G
I can hear the flowers a-growing in the rubble of the towers
G+G
I hear leaders quit their lying, I hear babies quit their crying
C majorC
I hear soldiers quit their dying one and all
G+G
I hear them all, I hear the all, I hear them all
Harmonica Solo (verse & chorus progression)
G+G
I hear the tender words from Zion, I hear Noah's waterfall
G+G
Hear the gentle lamb of Judah sleeping at the feet of Buddha
G+G
And the prophets from Elijah to the old Paiute Wovoka
C majorC
Take their places at the table when they're called
G+G
I hear them all, I hear the all, I hear them all
C majorC
I hear them all, I hear the all, I hear them all… (raise vocal pitch)
G+G
I hear them all, I hear the all, I hear them all…
