Chords for Iron Maiden-The Number Of The Beast *With Lyrics*

_ Woe to _ _ see, _ for the devil sends the beast with wrath, because he knows the time is short.
_ Let him who hath understanding reckon the number of the beast, for it is a human number.
Its number is six hundred and sixty-six.
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _
I left alone, _ _ my mind was blank.
_ [F] I [C] needed time to think to get the [D] memories from my mind.
What did I see?
_ Can I remember?
_ _ _ [C]
That what I saw that night was real and [D] not just fantasy.
_ Just what I saw _ _ in my old dreams [C] were the reflections of my walkers [D] staring back at me.
Causing my dreams, _ _ it's always the _
_ [C] evil voice that twists my mind and brings [D] me to despair. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ What I once was glad was no use at all.
_ Disaster's at the sea, with someone [C] watching [D] me.
In the mist, my fingers move.
_ Was all this for real or [C] just a [D] phrase?
[C] Six, [B] six, six, [C] the number [D] of the beast.
[C] _ Hell [G] _
[C] was close [D] to being released. _ _ _
Torches blazed and sacred chants were raised.
As we stand to cry, as [C] I'm to [D] the sky.
In the night, the fires are burning bright.
The ritual has begun, [C] Satan's work is [D] done. _
[C] Six, [Bm] six, [C] six, the [D] number of the beast.
[C] _ _ [B] Sacrifice [C] is going on [D] tonight. _
[Bm] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[Bm] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[Bm] _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _

[F] _ [G] _ _ [Bb] _ _ [D] _ _ [F] _
_ [G] _ _ [Bb] _ [C] [D] This can't go on, I'm rushing for my law.
Can it still be real or just [C] a crazy [D] dream?
But I feel so inhuman, the chanting has ceased to _ memorize [C] and _ [D] amortize.
[C] Six, [B] six, six, [C] the number [D] of the beast.
[C] Six, [B] six, six, [C] the one for [D] you and me. _
I'm coming back, _ I will return.
I [C] _ possess your body and I'll make [D] you burn.
_ _ I am the fire, _ I am the force.
_ [C]
I am the consummate, my evil [D] fate is false.
