[Verse 1]
[Em]Let the massive gather on the beach
Every one ah we like to reach

[Verse 2]
Listen while I say
[Em]Too long in Babylon
We've been [Bm]too long in B[Am]abylon
[Em]We've been too long in Babylon
(say what?)
We've been [Bm]too long in
[Am]Babylon [Em](how long?)

[Verse 3]
Over four [Am]hundred years, say what?
(Four hundred years)
Over four [Bm]hundred years,
I cry (four hundred years)
Over four [Am]hundred years in
[Bm]Babylon [Em](how long?)

[Verse 4]
Over four [Am]hundred years,
say what? (Four hundred years)
Over four [Bm]hundred years,
I cry (four hundred years)
Over four [Am]hundred years in [Bm]Babylon[Em]

[Verse 5]
And I man [Am]never cease a [Bm]fire 'til
[Em]Babylon walls burn down
I man [Am]never cease a [Bm]fire 'til
[Em]Babylon walls burn down
I man [Am]never cease my [Bm]fire 'til
[Em]Babylon walls burn down
I shall [Am]never cease my [Bm]fire 'til
[Em]Babylon walls burn down

[Verse 6]
[Em]Too long in Babylon
(say what?)
We've been [Bm]too long in
[Am]Babylon [Em](woii)
We've been too long in
Babylon (children)
We've been [Bm]too long in B[Am]abylon[Em]

[Verse 7]
How they [Am]weep us, they eat us
They [Bm]put us all to shame
[Am]Down there in [Bm]Babylon[Em]
Lord, they [Am]ate away the change
But we're [Bm]still using their brain
[Am]Down there in [Bm]Babylon[Em]
How we [Am]work without [Bm]a gain
Seems [Em]we labored in vain
[Am]Down there in [Bm]Babylon[Em]
Lord, the [Am]more they say tings [Bm]change
[Em]Still remain the same
[Am]Down there in [Bm]Babylon[Em]
Now, now, now

[Verse 8]
We've been [Em]too long in Babylon
(children)
We've been [Bm]too long in B[Am]abylon
[Em](say what?)
We've been too long in Babylon
(children)
We've been [Bm]too long in B[Am]abylon
[Em](how long has it been?)

[Verse 9]
Over four [Am]hundred years,
woii (four hundred years)
Over four [Bm]hundred years,
I cry (four hundred years)
Over four [Am]hundred years in
[Bm]Babylon [Em](say what?)

[Verse 10]
Over four [Am]hundred years,
woii (four hundred years)
Over four [Bm]hundred years, say what?
(Four hundred years)
Over four [Am]hundred years [Bm]in B[Em]abylon

[Verse 11]
And I man [Am]never cease a [Bm]fire 'til
[Em]Babylon walls burn down
I man [Am]never cease a [Bm]fire [Em]'til
Babylon walls burn down
I will [Am]never cease my [Bm]fire 'til
[Em]Babylon walls burn down
I shall [Am]never cease my [Bm]fire 'til
[Em]Babylon walls burn down

[Verse 12]
I man [Am]never cease my [Bm]fire 'til
[Em]Babylon walls burn down
I man [Am]never cease my [Bm]fire 'til
[Em]Babylon walls burn down
[Em]
