'Cos in my dreams it's always there. The evil

Night was black was no use holding back 'Cos I just
                  C      D

D
In the mist dark figures move and twist   was all
                  C      D
this for real or just some kind of hell

Chorus:
C        G         C         D
Six   six   six   the num-ber of the beast
Hell and fire     was born  to be released

[play verse]
Torches blazed and secret chants were phrased as they
start to cry hands held to the sky
In the night the fires are burning bright the ritual
has begun       satan's work is done

C        G         C         D
Six   six   six   the num-ber of the beast
Sac-  ri-   fice  is going  on tonight

(This) can't Go on I must inform the law can this
still be real or just some crazy dream
but I feel drawn towards the chanting hordes seems to

And I'll posess your body and I'll make you burn
I have the fire    I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take it's course
