    Bb         F                    Gm             F

   Bb                   F             G7            C
We tell the tale, Cause in a whale he nearly was dismembered!

But the second chance that he had got, he didn't want to be spread

now during your life you probably don't ride on a camel
and you probably won't wake up inside a large aquatic mammal
but now in your life there is something you can do
everyone deserves a second chance to come from you!
