C C
A A preacher went out hunting
F F C C
‘Twas on one Sunday morn

it was against his religion,
D7 D7 G7 G7
but he decided to Carry on
C C
he got himself three mighty fine quail,
F F C C
and one old measly hare,
F F C C A7 A7
And on his way returning home,
D7 D7 G7 G7 C C
He met a great big grizzly bear.

C C
The bear marched out in the middle of the road
F F C C
to meet the preacher to see

the preacher got so excited
D7 D7 G7 G7
he climbed a Big old tree
C C
The bear sat down upon the ground,
F F C C
the preacher climbed out on a limb
F F. C C
well he cast his eyes to the lord in the
A7 A7
skies
D7 D7 G7 G7 C C
and these words he said to him

Chorus:

C C
Oh, Lord, you delivered
G7 G7 C C
Daniel from the lion’s den

Also delivered Jonah,
D7 D7 G7 G7
from the belly of the whale and then
C C
saved three hebrew children
C7 C7
from the fiery furnace,
F F C C
so the good books do declare
F F C C A7 A7
now, oh Lord, if you can’t help me,
D7 D7 G7 G7 C C
well, then please don’t help that bear.

C C
Now the preacher was up in that tree,
F F C C
i think it was all night.

He says, Mr. Bear if you brother me
D7 D7 G7 G7
I'll give you an awful fight
C C
Just about that time the limb let go,
F F C C
And the preacher came tumbling down.
F F. C C
You shoulda see him getting his razor
A7 A7
out
D7 D7 G7 G7 C C
before he hit the ground

Chorus:

C C
Oh, Lord, you delivered
G7 G7 C C
Daniel from the lion’s den

Also delivered Jonah,
D7 D7 G7 G7
from the belly of the whale and then
C C
saved three hebrew children
C7 C7
from the fiery furnace,
F F C C
so the good books do declare
F F C C A7 A7
now, oh Lord, if you can’t help me,
D7 D7 G7 G7 C C
well, then please don’t help that bear

I recommend using bluegrass strumming, it sounds great on the ukulele and even better on the banjolele.
