The Twentieth Century Is Almost Over Chords & Lyrics - Johnny Cash

[VERSE]
[G]Back in 1899, when e[C]verybody sang "Auld Lang S[G]yne",
A hundred years would take a long, long time for every little boy and [D]girl.
Now th[G]ere's just one thing I would like to know,
[C]Where did the 20th century [G]go?
[G]I'd swear it was there just a minute ago.
All o[D]ver this wor[G]ld.

[CHORUS]
[G]All over this world, a[C]ll over this world.
The 2[G]0th century is almost over, all o[D]ver this wo[G]rld.

[G]Does anybody recall the[C] Great Depressi[G]on?
I read all about it in True Confess[D]ions,
Sorry I w[G]as late for the recording sessions,
[C]Somebody put me on h[G]old.

Did anybody see them linoleum floors, petroleum jelly and two world wars.
[G]The went ?round in revolving doors, All o[D]ver this wo[G]rld.

[CHORUS]
[G]All over this world, all ove[C]r this world.
The 2[G]0th century is almost over, almost o[D]ver almost o[G]ver
The 20th century is almost over, all o[D]ver this wo[G]rld.

[G]Old Father Time is a r[C]umbling and a rappin',
Standin' at the window thumpin? and a ta[G]ppin',

Everybody's waitin? for something to happen,
I hope it don?t happen to y[D]ou,
You k[G]now the Judgment Day is getting nearer,
[C]There it is in the rear view mir[G]ror.
If you duck down, I could see a little clearer, All o[D]ver this w[G]orld.

[CHORUS]
[G]All over this world, all ove[C]r this world.
[G]The 20th century is almost over, almost o[D]ver almost o[G]ver
[G]The 20th century is almost over, all o[D]ver this wo[G]rld.

[CHORUS]
[G]All over this world, all o[C]ver this world.
[G]The 20th century is almost over, almost o[D]ver almost o[G]ver
[G]The 20th century is almost over, all o[D]ver this wo[G]rld.
