Intro

Verse

“I keep thinking that you are going to change

I keep thinking that you are going to rearrange

But I'm a fool to think something so impossible

You ain't ever gonna change

You ain't ever gonna change

Oh no, Jericho

Until I blow”

Verse

(similar to previous)

“I keep thinking that you are going to write

I keep thinking that you are going to compromise

But I'm a fool to think something so improbable

You ain't ever gonna rise

You ain't ever gonna rise, oh no

Jericho, until I take you by surprise”

Interlude

Bridge

“Baby, I know that you're too sad to cry

My little darling, guess what? So am I

Still I believe we ought to shed a tear

The open hearted have no thing to fear

But I don't even think you hear me at all

Under your medieval ceiling behind your biblical wall

Guess I'll have to put my trumpet back in the case

And get behind this here canon covered in lace

Covered in lace”

Verse

(similar to previous, and add one extra bar of E7)

“I keep thinking that you are going to change

I keep thinking that you are going to rearrange

But I'm a fool to think something so impossible

You ain't ever gonna change

You ain't ever gonna change

Oh no, Jericho

Until I blow

Until I blow”
