      Bbm
Well, my goodness gracious,
 
let me tell you the news
   Bbm
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
Bbm
I've been down on bended knee
Bbm
talkin' to the man from Galilee
   Bbm
He spoke to me in a voice so sweet
  Bbm
I thought I heard the shuffle of angels' feet
   Bbm
He called my name and my heart stood still
     Bbm      N.C.
When He said "John go do my will"

[Verse 2]
              Bbm
Well, you may throw your rock, hide your hand
Bbm
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
       Bbm
But as sure as God made black and white
       Bbm
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light
 
[Chorus 1]

Run on for a long time

This tab is much to difficult: Use Capo at the first fret and everything would be much, much easier. Then it goes Am ... ... ... C D Em Am C D Em Am

not to bad, but first the cm,dm,fm, bit should be c#,d#m,fm and i dont think theres a Abm though AbMajor fits witht the song. think of it as being in b minor/c# major
