Intro


Verse 1

      G
I got kicked off of Noah's Ark
            C               G
I turned my cheek to unkind remarks
                                       D7
There was two of everything and one of me
             G
And when the rains came tumblin down
          C                     G
I held my breath and I stood my ground
                         D7               C     G
And I watch that ship go sailing off to   s  e  a

Take it back  ,take it back
   G
Oh no you can't say that

All of my friends are not dead or in jail

Through rock and through stone

Caught an isle seat on a plane

Drove my English teacher half insane
                                            D7
Makin up jokes about bicycle spokes and red balloons
G
So I called up my locall Dee jay
       C                    G
And he didn't have a lot to say 
                          D7                 C   G
But the radio has learned all of my favorite tunes

All of my friends are not dead or in jail

You bin comin home way to soon
                         D7        C  G

All of my friends are not dead or in jail

Through rock and through stone

The black mill still moans
                       D7                   C       G
Sweet revenge   ,sweet revenge will prevail without fail
