Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
C majorC          FF        C majorC
In the days of Noah just before the flood
                    G7G7
When the wicked world had all forgotten God
    C majorC            FF
Brother Noah built a boat which above God's wrath did float
    G7G7                C majorC
And the people saw that they were made of mud

Verse 2:
            FF          C majorC
As the doors stood open with the gang plank out
                  G7G7
Noah and his family entered with a shout
     C majorC
When the scoffers stretched their necks
       FF
Noah stepped out on the deck and said
    G7G7               C majorC
I'm so glad I'm on the inside looking out

Chorus:
            FF       C majorC
Oh I'd rather be on the inside looking out
    FF              C majorC
Than to be upon the outside looking in
     G7G7         C majorC
When the rain began to fall sinners on the Lord did call
    D7D7             G7G7
But the door was shut and night was setting in

Verse 3:
C majorC           FF       C majorC
Then old Noah from the window looking out
     FF            C majorC
Gazed to heaven beyond the water spout
    G7G7             C majorC         FF
And he said I thank the Lord that I took Him at his word
    G7G7               C majorC
I'm so glad I'm on the inside looking out

Verse 4:
             FF      C majorC
Good old Daniel lived in Babylon long ago
                    G7G7
And he had the grace to tell the devil no
    C majorC
Though he prayed three times a day
    FF
In the good old fashioned way
   G7G7              C majorC
They said he to the lions den must go

Verse 5:
           FF       C majorC
And lions made him welcomed to their home
                 G7G7
For they knew he was nothing but backbone
     C majorC                FF
When the king looked in and said are you alive or are you dead
    G7G7                C majorC
He was stirred as Daniel spoke in gentle tone

Chorus:
            FF       C majorC
Oh I'd rather be on the inside looking out
    FF              C majorC
Than to be upon the outside looking in
     G7G7           C majorC
While you paced the palace floor I had naught to do but snore
   D7D7             G7G7
Jesus put a padlock on each lions chin

Verse 6:
   C majorC          FF       C majorC
Good old Daniel from the inside looking out
   FF              C majorC
Don’t you think that he felt good enough to shout
    G7G7             C majorC         FF
Then he said long live the king and then started in to sing
    G7G7               C majorC
I'm so glad I'm on the inside looking out
