Intro: Am Dm Am Dm
Am
'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
