  G               C         G
The good Lord went to Noah and he told him about the flood

He said Noah build me a vessel and make it out of gopher wood
G                  C       G
Build it big, build it strong so it won't be torn apart
  G        Em         D7        G
Old Noah built him a masterpiece and he called it Noah's ark

 Forty days and nights, didn't it rain?

Oh didn't it rain children, didn't it rain, rain, rain

He had a dog and a cat and a gopher rat, a great big grizzly bear

He had a pumpkin and a big watermelon, he had every kind of wheat
  G       Em              A7     D7   G
And just before he closed that door he grabbed a handful of mustard seed
