[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
AmDay's gonna come when the Ewater runs out and the Amwell runs dry
And AmMan so dumb fish can't swim and Ebirds can't fly
AmWhat you gonna do when the crops won't grow
The Dmsun won't shine and it's 10 below
I'm Amnever gonna say that I Etold you so - the Amday's gonna come.
[Verse 2]
AmWho you gonna follow when you Erealise we're Amall in the wrong
AmWho do you believe when you've been deceived for Efar too long
You can Amcover your lips, your ears and your eyes
No Dmhear, no see, no tell no lies
There Amaint no way you can Eever deny - the Amday's gonna come.
[Chorus]
The Cday's gonna come when the World we know
Gonna Gmake us pay all the debts we owe
What a Amcrime, what a sin, what a Emess she's in
The Amday's gonna come.
The Fnight's so dark it'd scare the brave
The Cwind so cold it'd chill the grave
And the Ammaster working Efor the slave
The Amday's gonna come.
[Verse 3]
AmI can see a day when the Ewhole world falls Amdown on it's knees
AmPrayin' and a-beggin', crying to the Lord "Have Emercy on me"
You can Amrun but you can't hide
All the Dmsaints and sinners side by side
AmWaiting for Jesus to come Eout of the sky
The Amday's gonna come
[Verse 4]
Well AmI had a dream there was Enothing left worth Amfighting for
AmNo more fear, no more tears and Eno more war
Every Amgun, every bomb was M.I.A.
Every Dmsoldier turned and walked away
AmI can only Ehope and pray
The Amday's gonna come
[Chorus]
Well the Cday's gonna come when the World we know
Gonna Gmake us pay all the debts we owe
What a Amcrime, what a sin, what a Emess she's in
The Amday's gonna come.
The Fnight's so dark it'd scare the brave
The Cwind so cold it'd chill the grave
And the Ammaster working Efor the slave
The Amday's gonna come.
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Well the Cday's gonna come when the World we know
Gonna Gmake us pay all the debts we owe
What a Amcrime, what a sin, what a Emess she's in
The Amday's gonna come.
The Fnight's so dark it'd scare the brave
The Cwind so cold it'd chill the grave
And the Ammaster working Efor the slave
The Amday's gonna come.
And the Ammaster working Efor the slave
The Amday's gonna come.
