Is It Like Today
G D Am Em
Many years ago he looked out through a glassless window
G D Am
All that he could see was Babylon
G D Am Em
Beautiful green fields and dreams and learn to measure the stars
G D Am
But there was a worry in his heart
Am
He said,
Am7 D Am
How could it come to this?
Am7 D Am
I'm really worried about living
Am7 D Am
How could it come to this?
D C
Yeah I really want to know about this
G D Am
Is it like today?

(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2 Am Em
Many years a - go ...he ...looked out through a glass - less window,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
All that he could see ...was Ba--------by - lon,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2 Am Em
Beautiful green ...fields, and dreams, and learn to measure the stars,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
But there was a worry ...in ...in his heart!

G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
Is it like to - day? Oh! Oh - oh!
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2 Am Em
Then there came a day, we moved ...out across the Medi - ter - ranean,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
Came to western isles, and the Greek ...young men,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2 Am Em
And, with their silver beards, they laughed ...at the unknown of the universe,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
They could just sit, and guess ...God's name!
Am Am7 D Am
But they said, ..."Hey, how could it come to this?
Am7 D Am Am7 D Am
We're really worried about ...liv - ing! How could it come to this?
Am7 D C Cadd2 C
Yeah, we really want to know about ...this---------!"

G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
Is it like to - day? Oh! Oh - oh!
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2 Am Em
Then there followed days ...of kings, empires and re - vo - lution,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
Blood just looks the same ...when you open ...the veins,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2 Am Em
But, sometimes, it was faith, ...power, or reason as the cornerstone,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
But the furrowed brow... has never left his face!
Am Am7 D Am
He said, ..."How could it come to this?
Am7 D Am Am7 D Am
We've been living in a land - slide! How could it come to this?
Am7 D C Cadd2 C
Yeah, we really want to know about ...this--------------!"

G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
Or is it like to - day? Oh! Oh - oh!
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2 Am Em
Then there came a day, man ...packed up, flew off from the planet,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
He went to the moon, to ...the moon,
(Em riff) G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2 Am Em
Now he's out in space, hey, fixing all the problems,
(Em riff) G D Am Asus2 A7sus2
He comes face to face ...with ...God!
Am Am7 D Am
Who says, ..."How could it come to this?
Am7 D Am Am7 D Am
I'm really worried about my crea - tion! How did it come to this?
Am7 D C Cadd2 C
You're really killing me, ...you know!" | / / / / | / / / / |
G D Dsus2 D Am Asus2
It isn't just to - day, ...oh, Oh - oh!
