Chords

[Intro] E [Verse 1]
         E
Well the prophet Daniel tells about

      A
Three men who walked with God

          B7
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego

                             E
Before the wicked king they stood

        E
Now the king commanded them bound and thrown

         A
Into the fiery furnace that day

        B7
But the fire was so hot that the men were slain

                          E
That forced them on their way
[Chorus]
              B7
They wouldn't bend

                            E
They held on to the will of God so we are told

              B7
They wouldn't bow

                                      E
They would not bow their knees to the Idols made of gold

              B7
They wouldn't burn

                           E
They were protected by the Fourth Man in the fire

              A
They wouldn't bend

              B7                  E
They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn
[Verse 2]
             E
Now when the three were cast in and the king rose up

   A
To witness this awful fate

     B7
He began to tremble at what he saw

                        E
In astonished tones he spake

    E
Did we not cast three men bound

  A
Into the midst of the fire

    B7
I believe, I see four men unhurt

                         E
Unbound and walkin' down there

      E
I see Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego

        A
And the fiery coals they trod

        B7
But the form of the Fourth Man that I see

                   E
Is like the Son of God
[Chorus]
              B7
They wouldn't bend

                            E
They held on to the will of God so we are told

              B7
They wouldn't bow

                                      E
They would not bow their knees to the Idols made of gold

              B7
They wouldn't burn

                           E
They were protected by the Fourth Man in the fire

              A
They wouldn't bend

              B7                  E
They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn

              B7
They wouldn't bend

                            E
They held on to the will of God so we are told

              B7
They wouldn't bow

                                      E
They would not bow their knees to the Idols made of gold

              B7
They wouldn't burn

                           E
They were protected by the Fourth Man in the fire

              A
They wouldn't bend

              B7                  E
They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn
[Outro]
              A
They wouldn't bend

              B7                  E
They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn
