Rivers of Babylon

                B
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
        F#7                     B
ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.
                B
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
        F#7                     B
ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.


[Verse]

When the wicked
B               B7
Carried us away in captivity
E               B
Required from us a song
                                       F#7
Now how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land


When the wicked
B               B7
Carried us away in captivity
E               B
Requiring from us a song
                                       F#7
Now how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land


[Bridge]

        B         F#7          B              F#7
Let the words of our mouth and the meditations of our heart
        B       F#7      B
be acceptable in thy sight here tonight

        B         F#7          B              F#7
Let the words of our mouth and the meditations of our heart
        B       F#7      B
be acceptable in thy sight here tonight


[Chorus]

By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
        F#7                     B
ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.
                B
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
        F#7                     B
ye-eah we wept, when we remembered Zion.
