Jericho

 
              
        D              Am             C                 G 
When we came upon the plain you could hear the children saying 
           D               Am               C            C 
There's no way we're gonna take that city there 
               D               Am            C             G 
'Cause there's nothing but the wind is going out or coming in 
        D                Am                C             C 
Over ramparts reaching that far up in the air 
 
        Am           G       D              Am             C 
And the city like a drum was beaten by the long arm of the sun 
C                          G 
.... the long arm of the sun 
 
 
D - Am - C - G       D - Am - C 
             Ohhhh Ohhhh 
 
             D                Am                C                     G 
Through the clouds of dust we raised we marched around that place for days 
     D                        Am                   C               C 
The priests would blow on the ram's horns now and again 
       D              Am           C                  G 
But no other sound we made so from above they watched amazed 
           D              Am               C            C 
For it was like a race of wraiths beseiged them 
       Am             G       D                      Am            C 
And it went down as a rout we razed those walls with nothing but a shout 
C                  G 
.... nothing but a shout  
 
 
 
D - Am - C - G       D - Am - C 
             Ohhhh Ohhhh 
 
        Am           G       D              Am             C 
And the city like a drum was beaten by the long arm of the sun 
 
C                          G 
.... the long arm of the sun
