David Knopfler - Jericho CAPO: 2nd Fret INTRO: Am Dm Am Dm
'Twas Amlong ago near Jericho, where Joshua lit the spark A Dmsoldier from a holy war, lay dying in the dark And he Amheard the final trumpet through the sacred culling ground He Dmheard a sound like thunder, as walls came tumbling Amdown JeCriDcho, AmJericho
He'd Amprayed to find redemption, prayed for inner peace He Dmprayed upon the innocents, when searching for release He Amtravelled far behind the lines, cut the sacred wire DmPut his lips against the steel, like a symbol of his Amire Jericho, JeCriDcho, AmJericho
INSTRUMENTAL: Am Dm Am Dm
The Amlifeline was his holy cross, the giver of sweet gifts Small Dmmercies for the dying, on a final graveyard Amshift JeCriDcho, AmJericho
There was a final consecration, a final calling card
A Dmlifetime's culmination, for the words that came so hard The Amblood was coursing through his veins, he knew the final score DmSword lay in the scabbard and Death was at the door AmJericho, JeCriDcho, AmJericho
