When the Walls of Jerusalem Fell
This is a tune I wrote for that topic and this is a live performance in Neuenburg am Rhein, Germany
Jericho Em C G D Jericho. Defcon One. Battened down - fight or run? Em C G D Em There’s a mob at the gate gathering strength then they wait, then they wait Em C G D Fully armored men in front, prepped like lions on the hunt Em C G D round our city, round our land marched this silent trumpet band C/G D/A Em Waiting for who knows what - who knows why Em C G D Once a day, plan unbroken - marching men, no words spoken! Em C G D Six days in - is this a bluff? Have they finally had enough? C/G D/A Em Waiting for who knows what - who knows why CHORUS (THE LORD SPEAKS to ISRAEL) D/F# G C/G G For I will fight your battles says the Lord on high D/F# Cmaj7 Am7 Bm7 Em So when the stones start falling you’ll know the reason why Em C The week was nearly over, the seventh day was here G D on march with six repeating, and then there was a cheer! Em C the stones began to tumble, the walls began to fail G D Jericho is defeated and Yahweh has prevailed CHORUS (THE LORD SPEAKS to ISRAEL) D/F# G C/G G For I will fight your battles my victory you will see D/F# Cmaj7 Am7 Bm7 Em So when the stones start falling you’ll know that it was ME © Brian Kelley 2011
