Sheryl Crow - Shine over babylon

^DI walked the heat of seven hills ^AmEndless talk of losing wills ^EmGreat highways in a constant melt ^GMen and women and children all have overbuilt ^DBuying bread and paying for none ^AmCreatures of a waning sun ^EmTeacher’s hands are overrun ^GClowns and gypsies have all but gone

^GYou make me wanna ^AmShi^Cne^G over Babylon You make me wanna ^AmShi^Cne^G over Babylon

^DFreedoms etched on Sacred pillars ^AmHollow stones of mindless filler ^EmCan lead to madman oil drillers ^GWon’t be long before we all are killers ^DLittle boy lost way up the mountains ^AmCities drowning under boiling fountains ^EmI dreamed of chilly, sunlit days ^GI was trembling in a golden haze

^GYou make me wanna ^AmShi^Cne^G over Babylon You make me wanna ^AmShi^Cne^G over Babylon

^DWe celebrate the golden cow ^AmPraise the bloated bank account ^EmIf there’s a god where is he now ^GThe precipice is slipping further out ^DSanskrit message from the mounts ^AmLeave your possession, hope abounds ^EmThere’s nothing here for you to cry about ^GWe’re all just followers from here on out ^DI take the stage, I walk the planks ^AmI sing these songs with little thanks ^EmI wait for shouts from crazy cranks ^GI stand amidst the brown shirt ranks ^DI found my way to Alexandria ^AmWhere gurus bubble up on gangea ^EmScavengers, they run up and hand ya ^GAll the junk that should have damned ya

^GYou make me wanna ^AmShi^Cne^G over Babylon You make me wanna ^AmShi^Cne^G over Babylon

^DIf everything in life was free ^AmWe'd float in your own reverie ^EmThe things that yo can't seem to see ^GSeal the gap between you and me

^GYou make me wanna ^AmShi^Cne^G over Babylon You make me wanna ^AmShi^Cne^G over Babylon
