Tower Of Babel by Elton John
Tower Of Babel
I VERSE
Em
Snow,
C
cement
F G
and ivory young towers
F C
Someone called us Babylon
F
Those hungry hunters
G
Tracking down the hours
Eb Bb
But where were all your shoulders when we cried
Fm
Were the darlings on the sideline
Cm
Dreaming up such cherished lies
Ab
To whisper in your ear
F F
before you die
CHORUS
Eb
It's party time for the guys
Ab Bb
in the tower of Babel
Cm Ab
Sodom meet Gomorrah,
Eb Bb
Cain meet Abel
Fm
Have a ball y'all
Fm
See the letches crawl
Cm
With the call girls under the table
Ab
Watch them dig their graves
Eb Bb
`Cause Jesus don't save the guys
Fm Ab
In the tower of Babel
Ab
Watch them dig their graves
Eb Bb
`Cause Jesus don't save the guys
Fm Eb
In the tower of Babel, no no no
II VERSE
Em
Junk,
C
angel,
F G
this closet's always stacked
F C
The dealers in the basement
F
Filling your prescription
G
For a brand new heart attack
Eb Bb
But where were all your shoulders when we cried
Fm
Were the doctors in attendance
Cm
Saying how they felt so sick inside
Ab
Or was it just the scalpel blade that lied.
