*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
