Chorus:
            E
You got to move
You got to move
            A
You got to move
            E
You got to move

E              B
When the Lord gets ready
           E
You gotta move
You gotta move

            E
You may be high
You may be low
            A
You may be rich child
            E
You may be poor
E                       B
But when the Lord gets ready
           E
You gotta move
You gotta move

You see that woman
who walks the street
You see that police
upon his beat
But then the Lord gets ready
