[Verse 1]
G* C/E
These days I sleep under an open sky
G* G/F#* Em*
'Cause I can't seem to sleep in my bed
C/G G
Back before we split up my wife told me
Dsus4
"It's just in your head"
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9
A civilian's life used to make sense to me
G G/F# Em
Then I shipped out an served my two tours
C/G G
I retired last year, tried to come back
Dsus4
To life as before
[Chorus]
C/G G
But at night I still fly back to Jericho
C/G G D/F#
Where we brought their walls tumblin' down
C/G G
Buried my friends who have fallen
Dsus4
And never been found
C/G G
And God's children I'll save from their enemies
C/G G D/F#
With a horn that he gave me to blow
C/G G
Finish my days in the only place
Dsus4 G
I really know, Jericho
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9
When it's sunny I sit in the public park
G G/F# Em
When it's raining I ride on the train
C/G G
At this diner they serve me free coffee
Dsus4
They know me by name
G Cadd9
And the guys from my unit come talk to me
G G/F# Em
About the jobs they've been trying to chase
C/G G
And I tell them how after it's dark
Dsus4
I return to that place
[Chorus]
C/G G
How at night I can fly back to Jericho
C/G G D/F#
Where we brought their walls tumblin' down
C/G G
Bury my friends who have fallen
Dsus4
And never been found
C/G G
And God's children I'll save from their enemies
C/G G D/F#
With a horn that he gave me to blow
C/G G
Finished my days in the only place
Dsus4
I really know, Jericho
[Instrumental]
G5/D A7/E G
[Verse 3]
N.C. C
A garden grows now where that city burned
G G/F# Em
Children play with old guns from the war
C G
But the bullets are gone now, they don't even know
D
What they're for
G C
And my family back home can sleep well at night
G G/F# Em
Knowing I'll keep them safe everyday
C
Till I die and I'm laid to rest
G Dsus4
Under the ruins we made
[Chorus 2]
C G
Till at night I can fly back to Jericho
C G D
On two wings made of God's own design
C G
Buried my friends who have fallen
D
And been left behind
C G
And his children I'll save from their enemies
C G D
With a horn that he gave me to blow
C G
Finished my days in the only place
D
I really know, Jericho
