Fm Eb Fm By the rivers dark, in a wounded dawn Db Eb Fm I live my life in Babylon Fm Eb Fm Though I take my song from a withered limb Db Eb Fm Both song and tree, they sing for him Fm Eb Fm Be the truth unsaid and the blessing gone Db Eb Fm If I forget my Babylon
Chorus
Ab Bb Fm I did not know, and I could not see Db Eb Fm Who was waiting there, who was hunting me Ab Bb Fm By the rivers dark, where it all goes on Db Eb Fm By the rivers dark in Babylon
