Intro. (Electric Guitars)



It's been a long time comin'



Goin' to be a long time gone







And it appears to be a long



Appears to be a long



Appears to be a long time



Such a long, long time before the dawn, yeah







Turn, turn any corner



Turn and hear (Turn and hear) what your friends and your neighbors might have
to say, yeah



Something, something, something's goin' on around here



Surely, surely, surely will not stand the light of day







And it appears to be a long



Appears to be a long, yeah



Appears to be a long time



Such a long, long time before the dawn, yeah, yeah, yeah







Instrumental (Electric Guitar)



Speak out, speak out against the madness, yes, yeah, yeah



All I'm sayin' is speak your mind that is if you still can and you still have
the guts to



Don't, no don't, no, try to get yourself elected, no, no



And if you do forsake this child you'd better cut your hair







It appears to be a long, yes it does now



Appears to be a long, yeah, yeah



Appears to be a long such a long, a long(A long, a long)



Such a long, long time before the dawn







It's been a long time comin'



It'll be a long time gone (Gone, gone, gone, gone)







But you know



The darkest hour, yeah



It is always, just before your dawn, yes it is







And it appears to be a long, oh, oh



Appears to be a long, oh, oh, oh



Appears to be a long time



Such a long, long time







And it appears to be a long, yeah
