Babylon

Intro: Em 

 
Em                        Am 
Babylon, day comes the vultures devour you 
Em         D           G        D 
Baring the rot in your gardens 
    Em                 Am 
And I'll be coating my treasures in fire 
   Em           D          G          D 
So none but the damned may prize them 
        Em            D 
They're all I leave behind 
    Em             D 
Oh, were they even mine? 

 
             C 
So is it our time that's hollow 
            Em      D 
Or is it my chest? 
            C 
Why does my heart not follow 
           Em  D 
Her to the e-e-end? 

 
    C        Em     D 
She calls me up sometimes 
      Em                 D 
Says: “Hope you're doing fine” 

 
Em                       Am 
Babylon, I'm looking out from your cold tower 
Em     D      G      D 
Into a past horizon 
            C  G  D        C  G  D 
And ther's la-dy love, my la-dy love 
  C            G        D 
I built myself from hr warmth 
  C            G        D 
I built myself from hr warmth 
        C  G       D 
When it wa-as just us 
   C                 D 
We built ourselves a tower 

 
              C 
And is it our time that's hollow 
            Em      D 
Or is it my chest? 
            C 
Why does my heart not follow 
           Em  D 
Her to the e-e-end? 

 
               C                        Em  D 
Bring down the rain of arrow, take the defe-ense.. 
        C                                Em   D 
I wanna love tomorrow, but I love what's le-e-eft 

Coda: 
    C   Em      D 
Oh, Babylon you fake 
     C         Em       D 
Your walls are built to break 
      Em            D 
And I never came to stay 
        C      Em    D     A 
But I'm losing every way, around you
