first verse 
D 
There's something in my eye 
               Am              D 
Well, there's something in my throat 
     D    Am   C             G           D 
Oh, maybe I'm not the man I used to be before 
D 
Although I'm feeling strong 
         Am         D 
It's the bed where I belong 
D         Am        C           G 
Oh dancing days are over so I'm sipping on 
C            G               D 
Sipping on a toddy made with love 
G                D 
And who is she, dangling on my knee 
C                            D 
The core that is my apple or the cruel banshee 
G           D 
Who am I to say or criticize 
C                            A 
To Devil gave me warning so I choose to live a life 
Pre-Chorus 
      D                A 
Well, perhaps I should go 
   G                  D 
To where the trumpets roar 
    G                 A      D 
And wait to hear the guns of Jericho 

D Am C G 
second verse 
D 
I grew up in the East 
      Am              D 
And I threw up in the West 
     D       Am 
Oh, rant and raved 
     C        G            D 
And thinking Jesus this is great 
D 
King of my domain 
               Am          D 
Well, there's nothing in a name 
         D     Am      C            G 
And it wasn't long before I grew to realize 
C           G                 D 
Realize the fact we're all the same 
G                 D 
And though I bite seldom do I fight 
C                                D 
I'll tell you all about it in my own good time 
G                 D 
From my home I'll hang a scarlet rope 
    C                                   A 
So tell me that you'll leave me and my family alone 
Pre-Chorus 
        D              A 
Well, perhaps I should go 
   G                  D 
To where the trumpets roar 
     G               A       D 
And wait to hear the guns of Jericho 


        A 
In Jericho 
          G                 D 
Where the walls are set to fall 
        A 
In Jericho 
       G            D 
At the hands of Joshua 
    A 
So blow your horn, your siren call 
   G            D 
My seven days reclaim 
        G               A        D 
And I'm buried with the guns of Jericho 

D Am C G 

Third Verse 
D 
Travel all the while 
          Am               D 
With the shipmates and the wife 
     D    Am      C               G                D 
Oh, guaranteed to see the sunrise break before the dawn 

So, welcome all aboard 
        Am         D 
To this madness I adore 
       D        Am      C              G 
And as long as we're together for the better 
      C               G              D 
Now together for the better one and all 

     G             D 
And though I bite seldom do I fight 
      C                          D 
I'll tell you all about it in my own good time 


Pre-Chorus 
        D              A 
Well, perhaps I should go 
   G                  D 
To where the trumpets roar 
     G               A       D 
And wait to hear the guns of Jericho 


        A 
In Jericho 
          G                 D 
Where the walls are set to fall 
        A 
In Jericho 
       G            D 
At the hands of Joshua 
    A 
So blow your horn, your siren call 
   G            D 
My seven days reclaim 
        G               A        D 
And I'm buried with the guns of Jericho 

   outro 
         A 
Of Jericho 
             G         D 
I said the guns of Jericho 
         A 
Of Jericho 
             G         D 
I said the guns of Jericho
