'Twas long ago near Jericho, where Joshua lit the spark
Dm
A soldier from a holy war, lay dying in the dark
Am
And he heard the final trumpet through the sacred culling ground
Dm Am
He heard a sound like thunder, as walls came tumbling down
C D Am
Jericho, Jericho
Am
He'd prayed to find redemption, prayed for inner peace
Dm
He prayed upon the innocents, when searching for release
Am
He travelled far behind the lines, cut the sacred wire
Dm Am
Put his lips against the steel, like a symbol of his ire
C D Am
Jericho, Jericho, Jericho
Am Dm Am Dm
Am
The lifeline was his holy cross, the giver of sweet gifts
Dm Am
Small mercies for the dying, on a final graveyard shift
C D Am
Jericho, Jericho
There was a final consecration, a final calling card
Dm
A lifetime's culmination, for the words that came so hard
Am
The blood was coursing through his veins, he knew the final score
Dm
Sword lay in the scabbard and Death was at the door
Am C D Am
Jericho, Jericho, Jericho
