Em
Slaves, Hebrews born to serve to the pharaoh
Heed to his every word, live in fear
Faith of the unknown one, the deliverer
Wait, something must be done, four hundred years

Chorus:
Em                   C D
So let it be written
                  F Em
So let it be done
Em                     C    D   F G Em
I'm sent here by the chosen one
Em                  C D
So let it be written
                  F Em
So let it be done
Em                       C        D
To kill the first born pharaoh's son
B7    C# F#   Em
I'm creeping death

Now, let my people go, land of Goshen
Go, I will be with thee, bush of fire
Blood, running red and strong down the Nile
Plague, darkness three days long, hail to fire

Chorus

Em   F  D  Em
Die by my hand
    G      F        Em
I creep across the land
 F       D         Em
Killing first-born man
Em   F  D  Em
Die by my hand
    G      F        Em
I creep across the land
 F       D          Em
Killing first-born man

I rule the midnight air, the destroyer
Born, I shall soon be there, deadly mass
I creep the steps and floor, final darkness
Blood, lambs blood painted door, I shall pass
