Fm
By the rivers dark
Eb Fm
I wandered on
Dbmaj7
I lived my life
Eb Fm
In Babylon
And I did forget
My holy song:
And I had no strength
In Babylon
Ab Bb6
By the rivers dark
Fm
Where I could not see
Db Eb
Who was waiting there
Fm
Who was hunting me
And he cut my lip
And he cut my heart
So I could not drink
From the rivers dark
And he covered me
And I saw within
My lawless heart
And my wedding ring
I did not know
And I could not see
Who was waiting there
Who was hunting me
By the rivers dark
I panicked on
I belong at last
To Babylon
Then he struck my heart
With a deadly force
And he said, "This heart:
It is not yours"
Db Eb
And he gave the wind
Fm
My wedding ring
Db Eb/db
And he circled us
Bbm7 C C7
With everything
By the rivers dark
In a wounded dawn
I live my life
In Babylon
Though I take my song
From a withered limb
Both song and tree
They sing for him
Be the truth unsaid
And the blessing gone
If I forget
My Babylon
I did not know
And I could not see
Who was waiting there
Who was hunting me
By the rivers dark
Where it all goes on:
By the rivers dark
In Babylon
