------------------------..........................

*CAPO 4th FRET*

(Original Key: B)

Intro:

G  D,    G    D
G  D,    G    D
Oh yeah, yeah yeah

Verse 1:

    G
Now God said to Noah, "I don't want no sinnin'"
 G  D,    G    D
(Oh yeah, yeah yeah)
           G
"I've been telling you this since 'In the beginnin'"
 G  D,    G    D
(Oh yeah, yeah yeah)
           G
"You gotta round up your sons and all of their women"
 G  D,    G    D
(Oh yeah, yeah yeah)
                E7                  A
"Because you're going on a big boat ride
    D                      G
Now gather all the animals by the pair
E7                        A
 Build a big ship about a million square
    F#7                 Bm    A  G
And put all the animals right in there
           A          D
And sail a-way on the tide"

Bridge 1:

    C       G
But what if Noah
    E7         A
Had just said "No sir"?
          G        D        G     D
Well we'd all have fins and scaly skins
     G               D        G            D 
We'd breathe through gills in-stead of nos-trils
         E7                       A
And we'd eat fish food instead of vitamin pills

Chorus 1:

     G              A
It's scary but it's true,
   G           D
So do what the good book,
G            D
 Do what the good book,
G            A         D
 Do what the good book tells you to
 G  D,    G    D
(Oh yeah, yeah yeah)

Verse 2:

 A  E     A    E
(Oh yeah, yeah yeah)
    A
Now God said to David, "Do you hear that drummin'?"
 A  E     A    E
(Oh yeah, yeah yeah)
           A
"You gotta great big Philistine army comin'"
 A  E     A    E
(Oh yeah, yeah yeah)
           A
"You wanna oil up your sling and really get it hummin'"
 A  E     A    E
(Oh yeah, yeah yeah)
             F#7                    B              
"Because you gotta take the big guy down"
     E                   A
Well David got a dose of frights
       F#7                      B
But he wanted to be King of the Isrealites
      Ab7             C#m      B   A
So he put old Goliath right in his sights
                   B          E
And he bounced one off of his crown

Bridge 2:

    D       A          F#7        B
But what if David, had whined and wavered?
     A         E         A          E
We'd live like slaves to Philistine knaves,
    A            E      A       E
Our bosses would all be 30 feet tall
     A          E              A    E
We'd wash their clothes with a fire hose
         F#7                    B
And we'd sleep in the cracks be-tween their toes

Chorus 2:
     
     A              B
It's scary but it's true,
    Ab7      C#
And if I was you
    B           F#
I'd do what the good book,
B            F#         
 Do what the good book 
B            C#        F#
 Do what the good book tells me to
 B  F#    B    F#
(Oh yeah, yeah yeah)
B            C#                       F#
 Do what the good book te.........lls me to
