                         Dm  C+9/             E              F  C+9/E  
And how could I forget we marched around our share of Jerichos 
                 Bb                 CFmj9              
But I will not be setting out a   fleece for you tonight
                       Dm               C/EFmj9
Just wanna know if everything will be alright

Whose Bbevery sign and C/Ewonder turn the Fpages of our C/Ehistory

But tonight my heart is heavy
                     F2  C+9/            E                 Dm  Fm6/G#

And I know you could leave writing on the wall that’s just for me

Or send wisdom while I’m sleeping like in Solomon’s sweet dreams
                           Bb              CFmj9 
I don’t need the strength of Sampson or a chariot in the end 
                            Dm              C/EFmj9
