Jericho
Intro figure
| E | B | A | A |
My heart is like Jericho
a fortress built long ago
a royal city filled with gold
a mighty, mighty stronghold
But inside of Jericho
was a lost and lonely town
so soldier if you think you're the one
who regiment this battlement can surround and bring it down
| c#,
| B | A |
B
|
won't
you blow your trumpet now
| c#,
| B
| A | B |
and
I'll wave my flag as the walls come tumbling down. {repeat
2x}
Intro figure
| E | B | A | A |
My heart is like Jericho
a palace for a queen
filled with silks and precious things
walls covered in velvetine
But Jericho is not all it seems
and this castle is a smoke screen
so soldier if you think you've got the eyes
to clear this cloud and realize my disguise
DOUBLE CHORUS
Drop way back
My heart's leaving Jericho
a city so far from my home
across the river in the open plain
where milk and honey flow
But my heart still beats for Jericho
the only safety I've ever known
so soldier if you're calling me to go
| c#, | B | A | B |
you better keep your trumpet ready to blow. you better keep your
| c#, | B | A | B |
trumpet ready to blow. you better keep your (ad lib. Out)
