Intro:C#m E  A  C#m  - Lead guitar plays Theme

1.Strophe Part A: (only drums, bass and accoustic guitar)

      C#m                               E
They saddled me with bullets and they handed me a gun 
          A                              C#m	
and they said my boy you're going off to war.
            C#m                   E
I said goodbye to my lover as I walked out the door
              A                             C#m 
she said I'm too afraid I won't see you no more.

1.Strophe Part B (all):
      C#m                                 E
I reassured her with a kiss, and like my aim I did not miss 
       A                                C#m
and I hold that memory with me to this day.
            C#m                             E
I said I'm going across the sea to fight another one of me
        A                                C#m 
and I know not of the reason or or what for.

Ref.
      A                        C#m
So I jumped into the lion's mouth,
         A                             C#m 
just to see what life was really all about.
              A                           E			
And if I'm returned to the flames and whatever still remains 
         A                             C#m
oh yeah you will see what I was all about. 

2.Strophe
     C#m                         E
For years went on by without a bullet in my side 
        A                             C#m	
and I thanked the Lord that I had survived.
        C#m                                    E
When I walked through that door I caught you naked on the floor
       A                                     C#m 
and a part of me that survived well it just died. 

Ref.
      A                      C#m
So I put you in the lion's mouth, 
    A                                C#m 
so you could see what life was all about 
                A                             E
and now you're returned to the flames and whatever ever still remains 
         A                              C#m
oh yeah now you'll see what I was all about.

3.Strophe: Only Drums and Bass and Handklapp (2-1-2-1)
       C#m                                E		  
So I climbed up on the stairs above her body where she lay 
       A                             C#m
and I tied that noose around my own neck. 
             C#m                            E
And I thank God for all my days and to forgive my wicked ways
         A                               C#m
and let him without sin cast the first stone. 

Break

      C#m                             E
And with that said I jumped into my souls eternal bed 
       A                            C#m	
and I let my legs swing beneath my head. 
       C#m                           E
So if you should ever question the reason or what for
          A                               C#m 
oh then clearly boy you've never been to war.

Ref.
      A                       C#m
So I jumped into the lion's mouth, 
         A                             C#m 
just to see what life was really all about. 
              A                           E			
And when I returned in the flames and whatever still remains 
         A                             C#m
oh yeah you will see what I was all about.

       A (break)              C#m
So I jumped into the lion's mouth,
         A                             C#m 
just to see what life was really all about. 
              A                           E			
And when I returned in the flames and whatever still remains 
         A                             C#m
oh yeah you will see what I was all about. 

End:
       A (break)             C#m
So I jumped into the lions mouth
