- Lead guitar plays Theme
1.Strophe Part A: (only drums, bass and accoustic guitar)
They saddled me with bullets and they handed me a gun
and they said my boy you're going off to war.
I said goodbye to my lover as I walked out the door
she said I'm too afraid I won't see you no more.
1.Strophe Part B (all):
I reassured her with a kiss, and like my aim I did not miss
and I hold that memory with me to this day.
I said I'm going across the sea to fight another one of me
and I know not of the reason or or what for.
Ref.
So I jumped into the lion's mouth,
just to see what life was really all about.
And if I'm returned to the flames and whatever still remains
oh yeah you will see what I was all about.
2.Strophe
For years went on by without a bullet in my side
and I thanked the Lord that I had survived.
When I walked through that door I caught you naked on the floor
and a part of me that survived well it just died.
Ref.
So I put you in the lion's mouth,
so you could see what life was all about
and now you're returned to the flames and whatever ever still remains
oh yeah now you'll see what I was all about.
Guitar Solo on ½ Strophe
3.Strophe: Only Drums and Bass and Handklapp (2-1-2-1)
So I climbed up on the stairs above her body where she lay
and I tied that noose around my own neck.
And I thank God for all my days and to forgive my wicked ways
and let him without sin cast the first stone.
And with that said I jumped into my souls eternal bed
and I let my legs swing beneath my head.
So if you should ever question the reason or what for
oh then clearly boy you've never been to war.
Ref.
So I jumped into the lion's mouth,
just to see what life was really all about.
And when I returned in the flames and whatever still remains
oh yeah you will see what I was all about.
So I jumped into the lion's mouth,
just to see what life was really all about.
And when I returned in the flames and whatever still remains
oh yeah you will see what I was all about.
So I jumped into the lions mouth
