Jonah and the Whale

Capo 2nd fret

Verse:1

G C G

In the Bible we are told of a prophet to us called

D

To the city steeped in awful sin

G C G

All the people in that place were devoid of saving grace

D G

And the prophet seamed to pray to enter In

C G

Then the prophet forth was sent that all Neneve might repent

D

But instead of that catharsis he set sail

G C G

All the winds began to blow overboard did Jonah throw

D G

And he found a mercy seat inside the Whale

Chorus:

G C G

Over There over There in that land so bright and fair

D

We'll tell them all about it over there

G C G

In that halleluiah land I'll take Jonah by the hand

D G

And we'll tell them all about it over there

Verse:2

C G

In the cold and brighted beat tears of grief did Jonah weep

D

And the big fish threw him out upon the shore

G C G

Then he quickly went his way preached to Nenevee night and day

D G

Cause he did not bear to backslide any more

Verse:3

G C G

Now some people don't believe that a whale could himreceive

D

But still that doesn't prove my song untrue

G C G

There are whales on every side with their big mouth openwide

D G

Take care my friend that one don't swallow you

Verse:4

G C G

Many souls are tossed about by the whales of fear and doubt

D

But the savior wants to take them by the hand

G C G

If you will his voice avaide he will save you right away

D G

And lead you over to that promise land
