Intro:
 
G      Em   Bm    D 
G      Em   Bm    D 
Am  C        G 
Am  C        D      D/C   D/B   D/A 

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 



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 



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 



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
