[Verse 1]
A          Asus4                        A
  How many times have you heard someone say
     Asus4   A         D            A
If I had his money I'd do things my way
                     D     A
Hmm, but little they know
          D          A
Hmm, it's so hard to find
    A                      D         A
One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind
         A
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm
      D         A
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm- hm-hm-hm
 
[Verse 2]
           A         D           A
Once I was wading in fortune and fame
                  A                   D               A
Everything that I dreamed of to get a start in life’s game
            A                D          A
suddenly it happened, hmm, I lost every dime
                  A          D         A
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
         A
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm
      D         A
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm- hm-hm-hm
 
[Verse 3]
                A           D            A7
When my life is over and my time has run out
                  A               D                A
My friends and my loved ones I'll leave there’s no doubt
                  A            D           A
But one thing for certain when it comes my time
                    A            D         A
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind
         A
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm
      D         A
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm- hm-hm-hm

Have I surrendered to the will of God
        A7
Or am I still acting like the boss?
 
[Chorus]
       | Em  A G   | Em  A   G   |
Am I ready?             (Get ready!) Hope I’m ready!
| Em  A G   | Em  A       G   |
     (Ready?      Are you ready?)
 
[Solo]
  Em  A G   | Em  A       G   |
                  (Are you ready? Get ready!)
| Em  A G   | Em  A       G   |
     (Ready?      Are you ready?)
| Em  A G   | % |
| Em  A G   | % |
 
[Verse 3]
        A7
When destruction cometh swiftly
               A7
And there’s no time to say a fare-thee-well
           A7
Have you decided whether you want to be
   A7
In heaven or in hell?
 
[Chorus]
       | Em    A G   | Em  A   G   |
Are you ready (Oh yeah!    Get ready!)
       | Em    A G   | Em  A       G   |
Are you ready (Ready?      Are you ready?)
 
[Solo]
| Em  A G   | Em  A       G   |
                 (Are you ready? Get ready!)
| Em  A G   | Em  A       G   |
     (Ready?      Are you ready?)
| Em  A G   | % |
| Em  A G   | % |
 
[Verse 3]
                  A7
Have you got some unfinished business?
         A7
Is there something holding you back?
        A7
Are you thinking for yourself
           A7
Or are you following the pack?
 
[Chorus]
       | Em    A  G   | Em  A   G   |
Are you ready (Oh yeah!     Get ready!) Hope you’re ready ...
| Em  A  G   | Em  A       G   |
     (Ready?       Are you ready?)
       | Em    A G   | Em  A       G   |
Are you ready (Ready?      Are you ready? Be ready!)
| Em  A  G   | Em  A       G   |
     (Ready?       Are you ready?)
| Em  A  G   | Em  A       G   |
                  (Are you ready?)
| Em  A  G   | Em  A       G   |
                  (Are you ready?)
 
[Verse 4]
        A7
Are you ready for the judgment?
        A7
Are you ready for that terrible swift sword?
        A7
Are you ready for Armageddon?
        A7
Are you ready for the day of the Lord?
 
[Chorus]
             | Em    A  G   | Em  A   G   |
       Are you ready             (Get ready!)
(Are you  ...  ready?)
                  | Em     A  G   | Em  A       G   |
I hope you’re ready ...   (Ready?       Are you ready?)
| Em  A  G   | Em  A       G   |
                  (Are you ready? Get ready!)
| Em  A  G   | Em  A       G   |
     (Ready?       Are you ready?)
 
[Outro] (harp licks)
| Em  A  G   | Em  A       G   |
                  (Are you ready? Get ready!)
| Em  A  G   | Em  A       G   |
     (Ready?       Are you ready? Get ready!)
