G Em Bm D
I go searching through this world
G Em Bm D
I wait on something to unfurl
Am C G
Thinking back on toys and paper dolls
Am C D D/C D/B D/A
Now all I ever find are walls
G Em Bm D
Tried to find myself out east
G Em Bm D
Maybe find comfort there at least
Am C G
When I got there all I found
Am C D D/C D/B D/A
Somebody burned it to the ground
[Refrão]
G Em Bm D
So let your trumpets blow
G Em Bm D
?Round the walls of Jericho
Am C G
Let your mighty voices sound
Am C D D/C D/B D/A
Till the walls come tumbling down
I searched for days for you out west
And I was greeted like a guest
Into the desert?s open arms
Finding not your child-like charms
If these thoughts I hold be true
I lay down my traveling shoes
And let the vines grow over me
Let the earth swallow my dreams
[Refrão]
G Em Bm D
So let your trumpets blow
G Em Bm D
?Round the walls of Jericho
Am C G
Let your mighty voices sound
Am C D D/C D/B D/A
Till the walls come tumbling down
Solo
Throw your arrows and your slings
And your other precious things
Outside your gate I will stand tall
As you cower behind your wall
Look inside your self to see
Where these walls appear to be
Let your soul step out to breathe
Swallow whole your dignity
[Refrão]
G Em Bm D
So let your trumpets blow
G Em Bm D
?Round the walls of Jericho
Am C G
Let your mighty voices sound
Am C D D/C D/B D/A
Till the walls come tumbling down
Solo
